Sorry guys and girls been browsing this forum for few years. Me and a number of, well have to put it, geniuses are in the process of developing revolutionary kite. Basically our main aim is to have one kite that will have a massive wind range, and I mean MASSIVE. We are also going to have stability as one of the top factors. We are even putting forward if you can luff the kite once in a full 3 hours flying then we will give you half your money back and you keep your kite (obviously we will need proof).

 

 

Basically all I can say is think of a kite with a massive depower with !USEABLE! wind range on say 10 to 30+ and with a stability to beat any other kite out there. Shall I throw in the lift and hang time beater as well?

The kite is not like any kite seen before it is tri layered to trap air in the centre layer whilst taking in air in the top and expelling excess out bottom

Sorry English is not 100% but think I doing well.

Hmmm... This is your first post. How long have you been enjoying the Flexifoil Forum, or did you only just discover it?

you have pm again

[Avril107]

badger the answer is on first line of post.

I am surprised at the reaction to this post. If it is a legitimate post and this thing is being developed... a lot of you are burning your bridges and may lose the chance to get involved at an early stage.

 

Mind you... if it is a wind up.. might look a bit stupid. Worth the risk I reckon

:o It's been a long day! Good luck with your new kite. Sounds Briiiiiiiiilliannnnnnnnnt.

[ZoMbooLio]

obviously a wind up. If not, please can someone explain the reason for the original post? If this kite does exist, but is not to be launched, and already has test riders etc, why would they try and tease us? Just because it's BS.

 

It purports to be everything everyone would ever want from a kite, and yet the description is contradictory. Stability is mentioned early on, but then it is a bit twitchy. A video may be shown, but the kite blurred out... come on!

No.. I don't believe so.. Avril107 clearly has the intelligence to post some funny as replies..

[daZZa-S]

I agree with that one... you think thats good you should see his PM's ... called you lot who think he's joking Ferret Head lol.

[ZoMbooLio]

and that is what also makes it sound strange. The first post apologises for not being great at English (not that that would be noticed with some of the dullards in here), but in further posts, Avril107 is able to use the language in both a confident and amusing manner.

 

When does Neil's ban run out?

[daZZa-S]

Trust me I think this guy is very eccentric... eccentric designer is a good designer

[Mouthwash]

well gang, you all fall for a wattam-esque wind-up again.........

[Badger]

I'm not putting username as the company name as some stupid vagina is buying up websites in kite company names.

You know I would love to believe all this, but why have a company, and be scared to reveal the name of it? You can register a website name in seconds for about £5, so why not get on with it, and start ramping up our brand awareness?

 

The above quoted issue also seems rather insignificant compared to the anouncement of your new kite, so I'm surprised that it features in your posts. Feels like this a hitchcock style walk on part, with you mentioning this guy?

its a buster on depower

 

HAHAHA... The Revolution is coming!!!

A ferret head ? I'll remember that one On a scale of "the food chain" where abouts is a ferret ? ') :D

lol... I don't know but I will ask him that if I ever see him

[Avril107]

LOL. im getting use to this forum speak as you can see with abbriviation (see far left).

 

People still think I am a fake. All will become clear when one of your forum members meet a representative of our company. He or she will fly kite next week and will then say weather fake or not.

 

As for name of kite. We don't have a name. Why spend time screwing with brain to come up with name when can spend time to design kite.

 

As for On a scale of "the food chain" where abouts is a ferret ? Ferret is between weasil and stoat but not as high up as polecat. But all have same property when blended together in what you Austrilians call smoothy.

[tttonyyy1599968643]

So, center air layer, in through the top layer and out through the bottom layer - so, lets see... one, two, three, four skins, right?

 

Sounds heavy - how are you going to keep it up?

 

Do you use a rigid bar?

God you gotta hand it to him

Now I know a guy who takes the urine very well.

Hehehe... No we only put people flying Rhombus into blenders

 

 

Although many here think you are a fake, ok... make that most... I sure hope that you prove everybody wrong. For if you do then I guess it would only be of benefit to us to be proven wrong. However, if you are a fake, expect a large bill for my time And a large bill for the round of drinks you are going to have to shout down at the bar

 

Now some questions....

 

The kite you are looking to create, will it be suitable for buggys ?

 

Is it an "inflatable" kite, or will it setup and pack down rather easily ?

 

Does it come with an adjustable bridle ? Or is it fixed ? I believe most depower kites are fixed, however yours may be different yet again

 

Can you give us a rough idea of how many cells in the kite ? 5, 10, 50, 100, 5000 etc ?

 

A kite with so many layers of ripstop etc is going to cost more. If I am correct in thinking with the amount of levels / cells etc the kite would use about double or more then a standard foil kite such as a razor etc ? Price wise from that perspective do you believe the finished product will price well against other kites ?

 

Where will the kites be manufactured ? UK, USA, China ?

 

How many people have gone into the research and development of the kite and what sort of background do they have in these areas ?

 

Will there be a public prototype shown such as the PKD Combat kites were released to flyers before sale ? Or will it only be the final and finished product that is for viewing and testing ?

 

Have you thought of your warranty policy ? With more design comes more that can be damaged / manufactured faulty if mass produced etc.

 

Will it be flown on a 65cm bar, larger or smaller perhaps?

 

What is the main market you are aiming this kite at ?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA......besides some glaringly obvious contradictions in the spec of the "Uber Kite", the use of "innappropriate" words within sentences has made me cry with laughter.......HAHAHAHAHA.....

 

I do like the theory of feeding low pressure air, from the top skin to the high pressure air below the bottom skin. This has got to be the best de-power system yet. Destroy the lift, no power...easy ....Only problem is that due to the law of the conservation of energy, the high pressure air from below the wing, will naturally force it's way to the low pressure side of the wing (top skin), again destroying lift (unless controlled - See FS Jetflaps).

 

Normally this is discouraged, when dealing with aerofoil lifting devices, as it kinda makes the whole thing a bit pointless. A more widely known system is to feed high pressure air from the lower skin to the upper skin (or from the engines in the case of various aircraft), creating vortex generators, to push back the boundary layer seperation point (again see FS Jetflaps)

The concept of ARCING a foil is not a new one....several kite have used various systems. I'm just finishing off the one for the PKD Busters now (soon to be available for £4.99...from me ).

 

I do hope that this is for real......no I really do, but as someone who is involved with kite/bridle/de-power/control system design and knowing a lot of experts in this area (including having a father that is a Qualified Flying Instructor - good for the theory side), I have my doubts as to the validity of your claims.

 

I do wish you all the success and hope that I will be eating humble pie when you completly revolutionise the kite industry.

 

 

Joel....De-Power bridles are not fixed bridles....they have to have some dynamic element in them, otherwise no de-power

Joel....De-Power bridles are not fixed bridles....they have to have some dynamic element in them, otherwise no de-power

 

Sorry I meant fixed as no adjustment at the Bridal end. Such as moving the larks head further down the looped knots like on a PKD buster. Perhaps I used the wrong choice of words.
