Penny, Thanks for the tips. I'm flying an Indoor. I didn't realize there was a separate area for indoor when i posted. Read your post about indoor quad practice from last winter. I've seen video of you flying - I can only hope to approach your skills someday ! I watched Scott Weider and Shawn Tinkham fly indoor Revs on New Year's Eve here in Newport, then on 1.5s outdoors the next day. Got me "Rev'ed Up" to try my hand at indoor.

I'm learning to fly indoors on my favorite style kite. Done two sessions so far. I'm starting to get the hang of it. Much different from outdoors. I'd appreciate any tips on how to fly quad indoors. Seems as if you don't reverse a wing as much as accelerate the leading edge of a given wing to make it turn. I'm working on floating the kite, but not sure how since I don't have other flyers around. Any tips, hints, etc will be greatly appreciated. My goal is to try my hand in a competition in Newport on 19 Feb. Got a 2:30 piece of music and some ideas. Just have to translate my mental images into actions. Anybody living near East Greenwich, RI that is free to fly at lunch, or early in morning is welcome to join me for an informal session - can only offer access to hall on limited basis. Drop me an e-mail.
