Hadge Posted December 27, 2013 Report Posted December 27, 2013 The weather here has been lousy just lately, one Atlantic low pressure system after another. Lots of wind but no good for kite flying. The Delta Hawk loves it, but tries to rear your arms off after 30mph. So i was in the garage the other week and found a couple of old dead ( cheap) kites and some scraps of ripstop from an old project and Li'l Frankie was born! Basically a 60-70% Delta Hawk made from the canniblised parts of the dead kites! Half the pull , twice the speed! 4 Quote
SHBKF Posted December 28, 2013 Report Posted December 28, 2013 I love fast little kites in high winds. Not being a builder I use a Micron. Just found an old Alien, have high hopes for it in higher winds. Great job building & flying. Post a picture of the kite holding still & close up please. Quote
SHBKF Posted December 29, 2013 Report Posted December 29, 2013 Very professional looking. Makes me think about modifying some of the old kites that I will not likely fly otherwise. 1 Quote
