Kite aerial photo of a 252 flowform flying over Hammonasset State Park. The kite is 14 feet wide and 18 feet long. The tails are 100 feet long each. Now if I could only hand hold the 252, I would use it to lift my aerial rig.

The Sutton FlowForm 16 (on the left) and the Fled (on the right). The FlowForm is a sixteen square foot parafoil design kite while the fled is about thirty square feet. Both are quite capable of hauling an ultralight KAP rig even in the lightest winds. And fun to fly.... :))) You BET!! Not shown here is the FlowForm 8 which is half the size of the one shown here and works wonderfully when the winds kick up into really high gear.
The thing about Santa Barbara is the unpredictable wind. Or more like very light to very heavy with little in between. This psycho wind was from the NW around 25 mph. My flowforn 8 pulled like a drunken donkey, all over the place. I took it all down after less than 10 minutes. I want a straight down shot of this intersection, too risky today.

I have been working on the HQ flowform and now firmly believe it to be a good kite in strong winds. Its poor angle of attack is an asset in Beaufort 4. I flew today in something like 25mph peak wind speed: its very stable at these wind speeds and the pull is manageable, its about the same size as the Sutton ff30 which gets to be a real hand-full at these speeds. I used the AutoKAP rig as a test load really but got enough decent shots for this PTGui montage of 8 shots. The kite was drogued which helped avoid the inversions its prone to in turbulence at launch and landing.
