Hello - i know my lotus 18, but how about chrono 18m... ? Lift, Hangtime, Turn speed, low/high end ? weigh is the same 3,1kg (lotus - super silky, condom like material absolutelly hydrofobic, and chrono looks like normal light ripstop ) Mikser test and speed system adjustments its other thing... Maybe someone have both ?

I owned a speed 4 lotus 15m before and now a chrono v2 15m.

My feeling is that if you have good flying skills you gonna get better low end and upwind angle but if you do a mistake... Game over.

The difference is even bigger between S4 and V1 and if you want a fly and forget kite, or usually ride in gustish-light wind, keep your S4.

And have in mind that unlike your S4, V1 and V2 are hydroholic... But outstanding kites as long as you keep them in air
