I used 4 AN-1000-8's (IIRC) on the red parasol.
It worked well, for a small panel (under 10 pounds).

I also found a steel cup washer that fit the AN-1000's and used
a couple of them to "tune" the panel response rate a little higher.

For the Tailwind I woas gonna do the panel in sections using the
same tricks....
