Hi ya all. For those of you who have fitted wing bands to the Webbit what size did you use? I thought I read on here somewhere that somebody used 5" bands. On the strength of this I bought some as well but they don't half appear to be tight. Should I have got 6"? Cheers my friends.

I had the same thought Geoff so I went with 6" ones.

5" would be my choice but they are indeed too tight for the soft balsa - I've ended up using 6" stretched across the fus before going across the wings - like a number 7 shape.
