Inanimate carbon rod

cheezycheese - 22-10-2012 at 11:32 AM

I need a small spar for a two line stunt kite. It's 5mm x 24" my guess is it's carbon but any material should suffice. If anyone coming to WW has one it would be excellent....!

(who can guess the title reference ? )

Pultruded or wrapped?

Hollow or solid?

Will I be able to see close up of the rod?

I believe the one I have is hollow from the way it splintered. But my guess is solid would be better. Don't know if the weight difference would affect flight characteristics :dunno: ?
