Help required please from all you experienced makers  Does a pilot have ALL the trailing edge sewn up or should there be small openings at each end ? What weight nylon are they usually made from? I'm sure there will be more questions but for now I think thats it  |

If it is a Peter Lynn then it is all sewn up and as for the fabric as light as you can get: No heavier that 48gsm and down to 27gsm (if you can afford it)

sorry let me clarify Which piece to sew to what first,then so on is a good general technique for flowform type kites. Click on "Plans," and then on "Flow Form Type." There is a good general description on the basics of sewing this type of kite. |
