Maximum takeoff weight

You cannot lash highly invested objects. That raises an issue. You presumably cannot lash a fully invested gem. That in turn imposes a fuel constraint on Windrunners and Skybreakers. Your fuel, or, if you want to be pedantic, your fuel tank, will always pull you down. With a normal lashing you can take off only if you weigh more than your gems, or you are forced to use multiple lashings on yourself.In addition your velocity would suck, as your vector would essentially need to be straight up.

Hence there is a theoretical maximum takeoff weight ratio depending on your highest lashing..
In addition there is a maximum sensible takeoff weight, beyond which you could actually fly further if you decreased your load to avoid the cost of multiple lashings.

Does anybody know how much Stormlight you can put into a gem stone? Can we try to compute a Windrunner's fuel consumption? Should they be wearing skintight swimsuits to increase their range?
