Someone asked about Precision – it’s good. I’d pick a Fury or QPro from my bag in preference but would dither over this or the .85. Medium paced, no oversteer, controlled and controllable.

That dispensed with…. Let’s trick !

Good FULL Axels. Nicely paced Cascade. A Fade you need to keep an eye on but no more. Backspins and LSs are pretty much textbook. Flic Flacs need some arm (and leg) movement. It will Yoyo but the trick is in the slack, not the pop. I had to angle the stoppers backwards to get the catch to be reliable. It’s not a fast roll up and with too little slack just stops inverted.

Hmmmm…. just thought about this. Not a snag or line ping. That’s nice.

The tail adjustment has an effect. More like going from 5g to 10g tailweight than nothing to an entire Prism weight set but an interesting tuning option. A tweak rather than a radical alteration to the kite’s behaviour.

I’ll get some more detail pics. later and video it tomorrow hopefully (it never got above -15degC today and tape-based camcorders don’t like this). There’s not a kitemaker out there who can’t learn something from the way this thing is made; not Timmy B, not KenMac, no-one. There are details in the details and all have a function.

I want to fly this some more already. So I shall.
