My Arizona quad

[DonFibonacci]

Back in early 2016, my friend ("flynhi" here) and I were discussing how a Rev B pattern could make a pretty cool "Arizona flag" kite.  I'd just starting flying Revs and only had an EXP, but at the time I thought maybe I'd colorize a B Pro when I'm worthy.

Then life got a bit busy and I took an unplanned and unfortunately-timed hiatus from kiting. I came back to it in the spring of 2018 ready to move on from my EXP.  Lo and behold, some major stuff had gone down with Revolution during my absence!  I did a lot of detective work on the forums to piece together what happened (still not sure, but I got the gist).  Luckily, I was just in time to be able to find a stock B Standard, which I LOVE.  No luck on custom colors for my dream kite though.

So, I decided to make it myself.  I've unofficially nicknamed it John McKite in honor of Senator John McCain, who passed away during the time I was building it.  Now that I think of it, maybe it should be John McQuad.  Anyway, I wanted a more coppery color for the center "star" but the orange is pretty close, even more so when it's in the air.

Nicely done. Great job!

It is beautiful. Love the name and it's inspiration.

Love the concept. Very cool. Looks like a Mcquad to me but I wear glasses .
