Ozone R1v3 persistent frontal collapse

Re: Kite build project

Wow!! VVS, that looks really nice!!!. Have you had a chance to fly it yet? What program did you use for your design? Surfplan? I've got a couple of old C kites I was thinking of using, but a hate printing out all of the plans on 8 1/2 x 11 sheets of paper and having to tape them together. Any tips?

Re: Strutless Kite Build

Very cool!! Nice to see you flying it. I did a strut less kite build myself, but haven't dialed in the bridles yet. Mine is a 10m. The one in the pic is actually 17m, but I rebuild after design change and made it a 10m. Any tips or bridle measurements you have found to work well.
Thanks
