This morning I noticed a DHL bag by the door.
Could it be? The Pansh ACE I ordered?! Amazing, I place the order on Saturday, and it arrives Wednesday! China to California in 3days! I inspect the
bag for tears.... ( Since its DHL, my post office signs for it and delivers to my door. )

Looks good so I tear it open. A Bag in a Bag. What know keychain, fancy backpack, or even a sticker?! :frog:

I pull the kite out of the bag to find 4 flight lines folded between.
The lines are braided Dynema which tends to knot/stick easily but at least they look solid and have colored/sleaved loops. Green=GO (Power) ,
Red=STOP (breaks)

Got a 15 FT pendulum kite jump in 10 mph with pansh ace 8 m, no kidding, three witness. They say I kitelooped. Anyhow, it was totaly accidental and I
had very very hard landing. But nothing broke thanks god. Ankle still in pain. Watch out for the beast.

SoMoney's Pansh ACE 8.0 TEASER: (1st test flight)
I Still haven't had a chance to put the ACE through her paces yet, I got a really quick 15minute flight out in my back yard though. approx 8mph
winds. I used the lines off my Radsail pro III 7.0.
Quick Flight Observations:
1. Pansh ties it's Bridle loops to each edge of the wing.

Best place for this? I did have some minor tangling that took about 5 minutes to work out.
2. ACE8.0 doesn't like ANY break line tension.
I had to put a knot half way down the power lines on my handle approx 6"
I had to put my break lines out on the last knot.
3. Doing a break line turns with the ACE 8.0 is almost useless.
I fly the ACE8.0 to the right windows edge low in the wind window. pull in my left break line to try a pivot turn and climb. Nothing..... Not
sure what Im going to do here to increase break line turning agility yet.
4. Apparent LIFT?
Oh yea she does :evil:

Quick update, still flyin her and my Radsail pro7.
The Pansh is a little punchy and deflates a little to much for my liking so I have been flying my Radsail Pro7 more.
But when I just want silly lift and floaty landings I whip out the ACE.
