Being that it is smaller than the 40, does it protect you from the wind and bugs? Does it vibrate?

No it does not vibrate, and it protects your face from the bugs it is a big wind shield. The only problem I had was installing it I took it over to a local shop they put it on for me.

Works like a charm. I haven't had any troubles with it after I spent a small fortune for loctite - $7 for a small tube.

I am 6'1, and it gives me plenty of protection from wind, bugs, rocks, and debris. I have it mounted so that my mirrors touch the sides, and this provides extra support to reduce vibration. And the bottom touches the fairing, which gives a little more support. Now I enjoy taking long rides. It makes a huge difference. And I like that it can be removed in about 10 seconds, if I need to transport the bike. The only negative is that it reduces my top speed by 5 to 10mph.

Hi!It's a pretty hefty piece of plastic and the mounts are very good, so no vibrations, but on a small scooter it may be too heavy. As for bugs and wind, it works for me, but I suspect that it would depend on how tall your mirrors and seat are and how tall you are. On my 150, it is as tall as the top of my helmet and I haven't chewed on any bugs since I put it on :)HTH!

It glides smoothly but does make a slight noise. Not sure of WD-40 would help but it is worth the price.

It is pretty sensitive. If you have a very light touch and zero wind then yes.

It's effectiveness depends on current wind conditions. The fine mist is easily carried the wrong direction or to the ground where it does no good. Coverage area is pretty small.

No....it doesn't t take much wind to take it over! Also had trouble securing umbrella to stand...rather clumsy fitting.

Can fly outside, but in a very quiet environment. Slight wind can disrupt a good operation.

I luv it. Very sturdy.we get severe winds and it doesn't phase it. I also like how it has a extra piece to make the holder tsller if you want.

James, this is a great option for anyone mature enough to not damage it on the ground when handling. The three axis stabilization works better than advertised, allowing flights in even moderate wind. I've flown mine in ten mph winds easily by just keeping it facing upwind like a fish in a river current. The only issue I've had is that is sometimes difficult to get it to recognize my transmitter when binding, but that may just be because of my equipment. Get one. You won't regret it.

If the breeze is under 25 mph.... it should be okay. Hopefully it will be weighed down so as to not being lift by a strong gust

On the low setting where I tend to use it it has a low wind sound like a breeze from a distance. Easy to adjust to. On medium, it's just enough to put you to sleep. On high, which I don't use, it is quite noticeable.

I've had this umbrella over six months with almost daily use for sun protection, and live just a few miles from the coast in Southern California. It gets very windy here. The umbrella does great in wind compared to others I've had. There are wind vents, and a strap at the end of the handle (which is kind of awkward in shape but I've gotten used to it), that you can have around your wrist as an extra precaution to keep it in your grasp. Recommending it for windy areas.

It does not vibrate, yes it is water proof, it's all made of one material whatever that is..? It is very soft and bendable, kinda squishy.

I meant that the fan is wind noisy. It does not rattle. The wind noise is not extreme, but other fans of the same size that I have without remotes are quieter.

It probably offers little to no protection, but for its price... Its a good bargain for a decorative headwear (it also blocks wind pretty well.)

If you're in a large enough area, it'll handle a little wind. It's light enough that it can get tossed if the wind picks up. We live where it's pretty windy for a good part of the year, so it ended up not being a really practical gift for my husband. The helicopter's a little big to be used inside, but a little small for medium to high winds. I got it because I was assured that it was a great helicopter for beginners to learn how to fly, and it is... if you have good weather. It flies like a dream on calm days.

I was concerned about that myself when we purchased the shelter. We live on top of a mountain in the country and have had wind gust up to 50-60 mph this winter. We have had absolutely no problems with it. I did put it by a row of trees to help protect it and staked it down with additional re-bar and clamps. the canopy and structure have held up well.

We have small kids so it didn't bother them, it's possible it would bother someone who's taller! One thing I notice was sometimes the straps were vibrating from the wind and I thought it was annoying.
