Hi,
Just been having a look at a Radsail 3m Pro on eBay
Does anyone have experience with these?
Are they any good? - and are they any good for gusty winds?
AND (final question) are they more lifty or pully..
Also, how much should i be expecting to pay for a second hand one with slightly tatty handles and bag?
Thanks (for saving my trawling through tens of conflicting racekites reviews)

I have a Basic Radsail 3m that I like to fly in gusty inland winds. It is not as lifty as my Crossfire 3.2m and is more stable at the edge of the
window and in lulls. The bridle is pretty heavy and the lines and handles are pretty basic too compared to all my other fixed bridles.
The Pro is the next step up so might have a different quality bridle & lineset. The 3m Pro was selling for about US$250 new. How much a used one
is worth depends on what else is available for the same money. Also depends if you have to ship from UK to North America.

Not too many Radsail fliers in North America.
Something under $150 sounds about right.
I would fly this kite 1st. The only person I know who had one didn't like how it flew at all.
