What is the surface area of these four wings ?
PF
633 is 185 sq.in measured on 50mm mesh (182 on 100mm mesh)
So no more than 187
Larger than Lift 170

So around 1200 cm2, thanks.
And what about the three "normal" wings ?

I didn’t bother to measure those yet. 590 is ideal as far as I consider

Besides area, how 548/590 are thicker wings, the 633 beats that at over (correction) 25mm profile thickness

I know that yes, but area and profile/thickness almost solely determines lift, so important for us not having one, to know, if interested in one

I compared and 590 is same area as Hoverglide H5 if any data are available on that one.

590 is about 660 cm2 or 102 sq.in
548 and 550 are smaller (550 is also thinner)
545 (558) is narrower and thinner compared to 548/590
590 is stable and fast and can go slow. Forget about 548/550. Maybe ride 558 as a pre-race fast wing.
But 590 is just golden
