Wayne Dowler Posted October 17, 2014 Report Posted October 17, 2014 I'm floored!!! Just got home from an indoor flying session and my phone was flashing a message signal! It's from Lolly, telling me that one of the family has contacted them to make me an Indoor Rev!!! ME??!! My choice of colors too!! You don't know how many hours I've spent dreaming on that colorizer, all the while my budget says nope ain't gonna happen! And yet it is happening!! Now!!! Thank You to whomever you are!! I will fly it with as much passion as the one I have now and honor the spirit in which it was given! Still in disbelief ....!!!! Again - Thank You!! 6 Quote
PereiraM Posted October 17, 2014 Report Posted October 17, 2014 I have spent a few hours there myself. What a great blessing that is. Enjoy the gift that someone bestowed upon you and bring joy to others with it. 1 Quote
SHBKF Posted October 17, 2014 Report Posted October 17, 2014 When you're hiking & someone leaves a gift along the trail for you to enjoy it is called "Trail Magic". It might be food, or a book, or even a special favor. But the best ones seem to be the anonymous ones. The wonder of the mystery allows a freedom of thought about the moment of joy. So I suppose you might call this "Kite Magic". Best wishes for your enjoyment of the newly bestowed gift. 2 Quote

RobB Posted October 17, 2014 Report Posted October 17, 2014 An indoor kite ? Sounds like something you can make good use of ! I'd say smooth breezes, but you won't need those... 1 Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted October 22, 2014 Author Report Posted October 22, 2014 Heard from Lolly - it should be in my hands and ready to fly at my Thanksgiving Black Friday Fly!! Yeah baby!!! 2 Quote

Wayne Dowler Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Posted December 9, 2014 Still fine tuning it to get the feel I'm used to. But it is coming, just a few mods to finish up, even on a new kite! Looks Beautiful and can be seen in a thumbnail on the Rev forum Quote

povlhp Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 What is the difference ? Is it the frame only ? Or different material? In passing a saw a few days ago that the Chinese are copying that as well. Quote
John Barresi Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 You mean the difference between Indoor Revs and outdoor? If so, they're totally different proportions... Indoor Revs have a much larger amount of sail area (that's why the look chunkier) and lighter rods. Simply, increased sail to weight ratio to create way more sail pressure. Not much good outdoors though - while the amount of sail area helps indoors, it's a limitation in outdoor wind making it quite difficult to fly precisely. Quote
John Barresi Posted December 22, 2014 Report Posted December 22, 2014 You can see the difference in proportions pretty clearly here... 2 Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Posted December 23, 2014 Also have no leading edge mesh or bridle. A much different feel from any of the outdoor models. 1 Quote
