This video was just what I was after. I'm using a Ender 5 pro and slicing with Cura, worked a treat for me.....thanks for the great easy to understand video.....every day is a school day!!!!!
I've just recently made and successfully flown a similar Rokkaku and got my first photos, having learned a lot from you and a few others on TH-cam. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience, it's much appreciated. Best wishes.
@@AndrewNewton I put a couple up on Facebook but I'm (deliberately) hard to find there! I may do another short video that includes the best photos/video clips and I'm using some of the mountain/hill material in another video that I hope to upload to my channel soon.. I have a busy day job so have to fit all this in around it with short days at present here in Scotland, so I can't produce videos very quickly right now. I'll try to be sure to keep you informed. Thank you for your interest.
In my childhood we made such flying devices. They were called snakes. The size was small and also had a bridle. Also, there was a tail. Now I am engaged in modeling and one of the directions is "wingless aircraft". The principle of flight is like that of a snake, but without a leash and on the radio control.
Nice steady wind. I have a couple kites that would almost be dangerous in that wind ND a few so fast that they are hard to see. Beautiful kite, congrats. She deserves some bedizenment dude.
This could lift a small RC glider to a good height if the wind was right. I suppose you have to play with the angle of attack a bit to get the best altitude. Thanks for this. Bit different.
What Is Islam? Islam is not just another religion. It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham. Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God. It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone. It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine. The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as: { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus. Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him
Hi Andrew! Nice kite! I was wondering if you could tell me how you go about hooking up the scale to your kite line? Any information would be greatly appreciated! Best regards!
Thanks, it's called a Gamma Hook and you wrap the kit line under one hook then over and under the other hook a few times andrewnewtonkap.blogspot.com/search/label/gamma%20hook
Kite ripstop nylon from Emma Kites. Mine was $6.00 / yard back then. Important to know that kite ripstop or spinnaker cloth is lighter and has less stretch compared to tent or banner ripstop.

Looks brilliant, Andrew! An amazing first flight with no adjustments required, so a great testament to your kite-building skill. Have you made many kites before? You seem quite adept at sewing. Jim
Can you help me please with your rokaku kite plan. I made similar to yours and it fly for about 10 meters and dart down to its left side. Your advice will be greatly appreciated. TIA
Could be caused by a few different things. Try more bow in the cross spars, try higher bridle attachment point, finally look at how symmetrical the kite is.

Thanks to you Trevor
It flies very nicely. Nice high-tech line winder.

Flying snake would be interesting. Hope you post some videos.
I might have to teach you how to build a "Papagaio" and "Pipa" they are great kites.
Just can't get enough of these kites. Brilliant!

what a stable flight!
Love from india ❤️
Greetings India!
Very Cool!
Nice, this inspired me to do me a 1.4m taffeta nylon fabric version and a stratospool too. cheers!
Excellent, good luck

Must be big kites Brain.
Very stable and easy to fly.
Very cool!
Here in Brazil this type of kite is not so common ( in fact, I never seen one! ) .
Many thanks for the video!
Thanks Marco. I think you do have hexagonal kites in Brazil but with different spars
I like your wooden reel, that's cool.
It's called a Strato Spool

Hallo Andrew must you put on werking gloves for safety.
When can we make the line roller thank you greetings happy newyear salvatore
For big kite safety gloves are a must. That line burns and slices flesh if it gets out of control.
Wow really stable 👌🏻
Very interesting
very good
Good job
Thanks man. Can I ask where or how you found this video? It has become very popular lately and I don't know why. Love your channel by the way

Is it practical to string-fly a thermal glider like a kite to altitude then release? (sorry re old thread)
Difficult to keep the glider from tangling on the way up but it has been done. My mate Allen Moore has shown how on his channel.
Nice kite bro
Thanks
Great 👑👑👍
good job man!
Don't go over 120m 😂
Hi Andrew, just seen this, fantastic kite, very stable...I was hoping to see it soar up to 500 feet or more...?
Don't know about 500ft but it has been quite high www.flickr.com/photos/pandasimages/albums/72157631331072798

Hi, I'm Dominican. I really like this what good is it called?
Hello Amaury, what are you referring to?
Well made ...

Thanks for your great help. What size are the spars and spine? My guess is 8mm. Many thanks Pete.
Hi Pete, spars are Skyshark P4X from Kitesandfunthings, might be 7.5mm from memory
Thanks for such a quick response. I will follow it up. Regards Pete
Cool string winder! Did you build it yourself?
Hallo i am making the rogallo

Só faltou tirar aqueles plásticos de cima e botar um rabiolao que fica um latão daora
💚💚💚💚💚💚
does the kite become heavier the more the string is let out
More wind drag on the line, but weight doesn't matter so much with this big kite
Where I live we make some that can pull up to 135 lbs or more and keep noise if u want to see so look up "kite flying in Barbados"
I have seen your wonderful regional kites.
Good
