finally got my beamer IV 4m this week!
winds tommorow said to be bout 7mph, anyone know if thats enough for a first propper flight ?
weekend aswell is said to be about 15mph, would this be abit too high?
ive not unpacked it yet either, will it come with instructions for the set up and stuff ? never had one from new
cheers

7 is perfect and 15 is a little too much for one of your first flights for a 4m. 15 mph would be a little on the high side even with a 3m until you
have a little experience. My 3m comes out to replace the 4.9 at about 17-20 for the buggy though.

Beamers should come with an instructional dvd, the lines and handles will be all color coded for easy setup.

Beamers are pretty easy to set up, and great as first time flyers. Give this a read:

One of the members here, acambell, put it together and it's a great guide for your first flight with a quad line power kite.
