Not your church's "Rev" if that's what your thinkin...
Was sneeky today, threw the rev in the truck and was able to get 20 mins flight time between my house and the inlaws. "Had to stop at the store
first"
Wind was 24mph gusting to 36 so I couldn't resist a little kite time
even if it was just the "Rev"
A little hard to control in those winds but better than nothin.

Nice time and great place to fly. Did you use a 2 wrap inside a 3 wrap in those winds?

Sometimes you need to just fit a little flight in. I miss my Rev. I had one years ago.

Yeah LE seemed really solid and straight, did you double it up, or maybe have an SLE in there?
You need a Full vent!! Those winds were good for a full or even extra vent, your 20min would have turned into 40!
Joking aside the vented just fly sooo nice once the wind is high enough for them to fly.. The venting actually smoothes out the wing and makes them
smooooth as butter..:wee:
Nice flying and great spot you have there.

I used just a two wrap, should have went straight for the heavier one. I don't have very much experience with revs so I didn't know what to use right
off the bat. Not enough time to switch out sticks, next time I'll know better. Vented sounds like it would have been the way to go in those
conditions, the vid doesn't really show it but it was an extremely bumpy flight. Like being tied to a wild dog
Just glad I didn't break anything.
