I arrived late in the day having had a few chores to deal with first and was greated by a pretty good display of kites. All the usual suspects were there.
So I put up the flowform 30 with two tails to keep it steady in the bouncy breeze, put three spiky balls on the line and borrowed Rob's big one to make a show and left it there flying all afternoon.
Picked up Alexis' rok from Rob's bargain bucket, then went and untangled some string. And by then the day was drawing to an end, so brought the balls down and decided to try some Kap on the FF. Well we were up, iarborn and ready, but for some reason, I had no control over the rig. Everything seemed to have power, but nothing seemed to be working. However when I brought everything back to ground we were ok again. Now I know I'm using a short range "park" receiver, but I can't believe it was out of range!
Anyway, packed everything up, and set the BIG delta up for night flying. "You'll never get that up" wanna bet!!!!! Up she went with all lights flickering nicely. Looked great as the dark clouds rolled in and the heavens opened. So we got soaked and I will have to fly again today to dry it out!
See ya all tomorrow
