Flexifoil AAA setting info


Hey guys, just got that sweet 5M Blurr from lad and was wondering if anyone could help me on the AAA settings.

Using this diagram: http://www.coastalwindsports.com/102NextFlights4LineHandles.... is helpful, especially if I put the AAA kit on my 4.7 Rage, but what I really want to know as a newbie is which knot is the factory default knot, and how do the knots work, i.e. are the knots closer to the handles for low wind or power? I can't find any specific info to tell me what the benefit of each respective knot (setting) is...

The way I remember is it's the same as a depower bar...

Move the knot toward the handles for more power and a slower kite, toward the kite for less power and a faster kite.

Be aware that in very low wind counter intuitively often requires the very high wind setting to get the kite moving!

Hopefully, that will make things a bit clearer. :wee:

Thank you Sam! Once again, exactly what I was looking for- other than some wind to go try it out ;-)
