Structurally the Hanuman will endure stress up to 6 positive Gs, or 3 negative Gs. This is far beyond the limits to which the Aircraft will be exposed to, even in the most severe turbulent conditions. However, it is important to note that THE HANUMAN IS NOT DESIGNED TO PERFORM AEROBATICS! All components are protected from Corrosion, by Epoxy / Polyurethane Paints, or Electrolytic processes to ensure a safe & long life of structural components even in Coastal Environments.
