I have been using this for over a year now and it works excellently. Gave me a lot more options with existing kit and swapping between wing and kite set-up.....just thought that someone else out there might find it useful
Your vid really captures very well the flight characteristics of the kite.....please could you share which camera you use, and where and how you mount it in order to capture such steady images?
Please can someone tell me whether a slingshot mast will fit a Gong base plate. I recognise the bolt hole spacing is different - just wondering about the profile of the mast into the socket?
That is brilliant Andre - nice job - particularly clever on the graphics I have a quiver of Agilus for hydrofoiling and love them. I have had sometimes a problem with a bit of low pressure hooding on the canopy in a line behind the leading edge (this was especially a problem in my first build where ...
Well this thread has taken some interesting directions - i love the experimentation with different materials in construction seeking ever lighter kites. VP22 you have made a truly beautiful job on your 9m - fabulous. However, i am intrigued if you are such a weight weenie, why dont you just lose tha...
Thanks Stu - was trying to open the file in an older version of blender. How did you decide on the amount of dihedral? Pantau - how does Stus design compare with the wing you have already made? Would it be a simple task to add an inflatable strut as the handles option which seems to be the most popu...
Wow PanTau - presumably this is your latest version of WingCalc? - it looks stunning. A wonderful level of detail modelled in such as PVC? windows and reinforcement patches - cant wait to see some of the updated versions of your kites Wingstu - can your give a bit more detail about what and how you ...
Wingstu thank you very much - your recommendation for sorting out the profile worked brilliantly - for me surfplan is a lot of trial and error, tweak a setting and see what happens - it is a slow way to learn. Wouldn't the setting Profile depth (%) at chord (%) under Profile - Wingtips take care of ...
