Dorsal Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 If the trailing edge gets as straight as those on the Viper, they make a LOT of noise in flight. Maybe it also affects the handling of the kite, too. <_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The flapping also will stress the ripstop unless it strengthened with something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
