Re: Pterosaur Size, Weight, ST and Maximum Encumbrance when Flying
Depends what ST means. You've got these wing muscles, and they're amazing, but they're also attached to wings. The rest of the body is probably weaker than a ground-based animal of similar weight.
Cruising flight speed is probably about 20 (40 mph), stall is not well defined for flapping wings but they likely have a lot of trouble below move 10. Max move in a dive is potentially very fast but max safe speed considerably lower.
