Ozone Photon ML — the calm two-liner C that wakes up on full ballast

The Photon's weapon is composure. Launch is polite in nil and strong wind alike, pitch and roll stay stable, and on the accelerated glide it clearly beats the Mantra 7. But the performance comes with a condition. At 100kg it couldn't catch the Zeno 2 in the core, and only with 104–105kg of ballast did climb and forward drive come alive together. A pilot who wants to enjoy it gently at light loading may find it a touch flat. The lighter you fly it, the more placid it feels; the heavier you load it, the more it rewards you. It suits the efficiency-minded XC pilot who wants calm behaviour and a glide that holds solid — and who is willing to push their own weight to the top of the range. Less a C that's easy for everyone, more a C that answers with efficiency for the pilot who loads it properly.
