Pulse 2 Mixer test

manitoulinkiter1 - 29-12-2010 at 07:42 PM

Hey All

I think it's time to do a mixer test on my Pulse 2.
Does anyone know where I might see a video of it. I have seen the one for the Pulse 1 but can't find one for the Pulse 2.
What I'd like to know is what do you do with the steering adjustments?
On the Pulse 1 you have to let it off, what do you do with the Pulse 2 ?

Thanks in advance
John

It is the same for Pulse 1 or 2 as far as measurements. The Pulse 2 has balls rather than knots so it is easier to adjust.
Here is a thread I started about it. There is a link to a Facebook app that shows what the mixer change does. I have my mixer set at stock - knots line up all the way across.

Here are two videos from Mr. Flysurfer himself

I think with the Pulse 2 you leave it on (I know mine lined up dead on with the kite at the factory (hard steering) set up when I first got it. However, when I peformed my first mixer test on it I did remove it or loosen it up enough so it had no impact on the test - I think that evened things out slightly but did not move the world.

I recall reading somewhere that based on the design in the Pulse 2 you no longer needed to remove that line for the mixer test but I can't be sure where I read that and if in doubt, I would remove it since if its off it absolutely has no impact on the mixer test.
