Das SUL-Segel hat gestern Abend seine Stäbe bekommen: Leitkanten und Kiel sind Aurel Agil 700, die untere Querspreize Nitro Lite, die obere Querspreize ist 4mm.

Wow! Wonder how it performs

Speedcontrol and a constant speed trough out the wind window is very important when flying in team or pair situations. I still have to try it in more wind, but my first impressions are quite good in those aspects.

Already watching

Correction already watched. Good flying as for all of the videos you have produced so far. Always gets me envious.

BTW there seems to be much noise in the ground area of the video. Was it already quiet dark while filming or did you use a low resolution?

It was very dark allready indeed. I was kind of impressed by the Hero9 still producing a usable image with those low light conditions. With noise that is...

Zitat von Tom von Ka

Da ist er nun , so gut wie fertig, nur noch die Clipse festkleben und nochmal gucken wie ich die Waage nun hinter dem Kreuz festmachen.

Nice one! Added it to the builds page.

Thanks Birger for sharing another great kite design to the scene!

OSTK Episode 32: Escape | IckyTV

Open Source Trickkites episode 32 features Birger Garbe's (Ulzburger Kites) latest design: Escape. My Escape was delivered by mail and with a forecast of nice wind and weather i just had to go out and give it a spin. Flown at the huge Maasvlakte beach in a smooth sea breeze. First impressions are very good. Love it.

1:55 love it

Thanks! It's fun

The XL is the larger version of MugenKites' open source kite Lazarus. Flown in SUL wind at Formerum beach, Terschelling. Smooth flight, slow tricks and a lot of fun. Thanks Gabor for providing the kite to test and enjoy.

So, heute ist er fertig geworden....

Looking good! i'll put it on the builds page.

The 5th round of 'PILOT' features Bram, André, Ronald, Lucas and Lars who all perform the Comete trick at the Zandmotor beach. See description and how to vote below:

Comete

The COMETE is a tumbling trick in which the kite rotates in a single direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise). In each rotation, the kite passes through roughly four positions: in a clockwise rotation the Comete starts with a Half Axel which flares the kite belly down, nose away. Followed by a pop causing the nose pointing down and slightly to one side. The next pull brings the kite into almost a turtle position (belly up, nose away). The last pull turns the nose pointing right. This series of four positions constitutes one rotation.

Wind: moderate/3bft

We want to know your opinion! Write a comment (IckyTV Instagram, Youtube or Facebook) with the following:
1. Your favourite Comete execution (name of pilot)
2. Motivate your opinion (optional)
3. Which trick do you want to see next?

We will announce the 'winner' in the next 'PILOT' video featuring the trick with the most votes from all episodes combined. Stay tuned!

Gabor (MugenKites) experimented with adding winglets to his Strange Thing kite design. It looks very striking IMHO. It gives the kite it's own unique character. Flown in moderate wind at Hoorn beach, Terschelling. Video shot using my new GoPro Hero9. Enjoy in 4K! Thanks Gabor for providing yet another batch of kites to fly and enjoy. Much, much, much appreciated!

The temperature is dropping fast and so are the leaves. Here's a little flashback to much nicer weather a few months ago in Contis Plage, France. We were there for the day to meet some friends and i just had to squeeze in a little 90Three STD session. Strange wind, but a lot of fun. Enjoy!

Thanks. Hope to able to do a Badass UL video soon.

2 more EOL's from California, USA. Angela made a UL and STD version.

Zitat von dl3it

Ein neuer [RETURN] Std ist entstanden. Mein erster selbst gebauter Zweileiner.

Etwas Ähnlichkeit mit dem Original kann man hoffentlich erkennen. Mangels wenigstens etwas Wind war er noch nicht in der Luft; könnte morgen ggf. klappen.
Danke an @Ulzburger für den super gemachten und verständlichen Plan und an @karel_oh fürs Hosten der Pläne und der sonstigen Informationen.
Jetzt muss ich nur noch ein paar grundlegende Tricks lernen... Aber der Wunsch dies zu tun war auch die Motivation fürs Bauen

Nice one! added to the builds page.

Yes, i'll change mine too! Curious about the change.

Zitat von GiMiCX

latest available specs?
How I wrote on FB, there must be a big mistake.
Spreader length and con positions must be wrong.

This is how i recieved the kite.
Where did you write on FB, Grisha?

Anything positive to add as well?

Flying the KRD Element kite designed by Chris Goff at the Zandmotor beach in a light breeze. This Element was modded to the latest available specs. Crazy Copters! I will be comparing this version with the original Element in the near future. Thanks to Gabor for providing the kite. Enjoy!
