First of all, don't pop in here as you say it and be insulting. We can have a nice discussion without you making assumptions and inciting ill will towards youngsters. I have been associated (school teacher) with many youngsters that are much more intelligent than many adults that I know. Second, I don't see where skywalker stated his altitude. Your statement that the higher the wing loading the less wing rock is non-sense.
We are not talking about pilot induced wing rock caused by overcorrecting the rudder. This happens all the time. We are talking about stall induced wing rock. The entire wing will not stall all at once and depending on the airfoil and the angle of attack the wing will go into and out of stall. This in and out of stall from one wing to the other causes the wing rock. Stall occurs when the lift generated by the airfoil is no longer sufficient to support the aircraft weight. Support the aircraft weight......that is the key here. More weight the more lift needed to support it. The lighter the plane is to easier it is to keep the plane from going into and out of stall. One pound on a 17 pound airplane can make a huge difference.
The 85 in this plane may be fine, I am not saying it would be a mistake.

UUmmm, I don't know where to start but I am going to be civil. There is nothing wrong with what I stated. It is the truth. I suggest you do a little more reading before you contradict me. The fact that you did not read this thread entirely proves my point. Altitude was stated earlier. Rather you believe it or not, it is up to you. In a post stall condition, the resultant vector of thrust is vertical and not horizontal. Wing rock is caused by negative roll dampening. I choose not to get into an aerodynamic conversation with your misguided intuition. I get paid for teaching people. You may be a school teacher, but I teach people how to fly. If I teach them somethin wrong, it could cost them their life. Youngsters may be smart, but the information given was incorrect.
Good luck gentlemen.
