I'm looking to buy another teebird, what is more stable:

11x or 12x?
 
i thought the rule was:
Clear= Straight with more fade
opaque= Straight with less fade

11x and 12x doesn't matter as much.
 
In my experience the slightly domier 12x ones have a little less fade to them than a flatter 11x. Also there are a lot of 12x teebirds that have the 11x stamp on them.

there were at least 2-4 runs of 11x champion teebirds.
there's been at least 2 runs of 12x champion teebirds.

and some counsel from here:

I like 11's much more than 12's because of the extra stability... but really its all in how you pick them.

Look for clear plastic 11x's with a lower dome and you will find a Teebird that can handle all headwinds and reliably go left (rhbh).
Look for opaque to pearly 11x's with a moderate to low dome and you will find a Teebird that can handle light wind, and work itself into a very LONG control driver.
Find mega opaque 11x's with a higher dome and you're looking at a 12x with the 11 stamp... and well, they just seem squirrely to me, haven't thrown a 12 that I like yet.

For those that like 12x teebirds, try star teebirds... I feel they break into good hyzer flip teebirds better than 12's and feel better. (special mention goes to red star teebirds that I feel are more stable).
