There is a video posted to the Facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/MPHfabricat...9824436148425/ of a string test going 80 showing it perfectly stable and I've had it to 95mph briefly off camera and it's just as stable. The carbon perimeter frame and the shape added with the vent are what keep it rigid as a whole while keeping it light and being 100% carbon helps the skin stay somewhat flexible without cracking or breaking but be stiff enough to not flop around from the air pressure.
