Foilholio has written pages upon pages of how to mod the Pansh A15 because when it comes down to it, the kite has issues new.
Kite is fine out of the bag, as have many others reported. Most posts from me are about mod results and effects on the kite, kiterfromgermany has been more prolific than me in mod posts. Mods are not to fix a bad kite, it is a good kite, mods are to make a good kite better. Yep Flysurfer are good kites too, I mod them too and have posted about it
The large amount of posts about the A15 driven by kiterfromgermany have revealed some really good developments. If someone was to purchase an A15 today, mods are now calculated and freely available that give a quite different and much improved kite. If someone has an existing A15 same improvements can be had. A free over the air update for kites so to speak. What a lovely community Pansh has fostered by selling the most affordable kites available. Who would have thought foil kites stigmatized as the most expensive and are now the cheapest. Are other brands jealous that there users don't give the same love and attention to freely improve their kites for them, probably. Has Pansh upset the traditional brand manufacturer relationship and not to mention stealership model, no doubt. Are there attacks on Pansh often from vested resellers, most definitely.
Now Jakemoore be honest have you even flown the kite?

I’ve been checking them out. Nice price for sure and wouldn’t get my feelings too hurt if I destroyed it. Just wondering if it was setup correctly right out of the bag.
A15 and Aurora 2 all reports are that they are fine out of the bag. Genesis not good and needs improvements which I can help with. Other kites I would air some caution and look for reviews, the new high AR looks like it may have some issues.
Pansh is not to same quality as Flysurfer but not too distant from it either. Big issue with them is bar setup. I use my own bars so I have no problem. If you cant add pigtails to trim a bar don't expect things to work well till you do. It's a very basic easy skill and no sweat if you can already kite.
