Koobecaf Uoykcuf Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Thanks Mak. Reallife has taken away from kitelife lol. But but......I got a kite buggy! Im in disbelief. I did also get a micron over the winter. Flew it with a 75 foot long tissue streamer. AWESOME to say the least! I also have several monster fish that take up alot of my free time. There are tons of videos on my youtube of them also. https://youtu.be/j6TO4jkri9Y that is the video of me flying my micron. Here is my first attempt at the buggy lol https://youtu.be/eBpW5prHqF4 Many more to come ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Barresi Posted May 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 Cool. 👍🏻 Pay mind to the fluttering noise in the trailing edge - when tuned well, a quad shouldn’t produce much fluttering except during maximum high speed flight... Try one knot longer at a time until the noise is all but gone, though launching may have to be more assertive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breezin Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 OMG that looks like so much fun.Get to finally meet up with some buggy people this Sunday in Denver CO.Forecast is for 31 degrees so I'm hoping the cold doesn't cancel the fly. I got warm clothes and that to me is better than 100 degrees. They've flown with Tami Frazer who set a speed record at 58.8 mph on a buggy. I got a daughter that's got enough nerve to learn to do that. Don't know if I could cowboy up enough to get to 30 mph LOL. Sure want to try though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
