That NPW21 looks awesome. I'm curious about the design of the leading edge (nose?). Have you installed bungee cords in the nose?

Thanks, with the nose I have used some bridle line, it's knotted to allow me to be able to change the tie length. I have found that the nose/kite performs better if the nose tie length is increased from standard.

The bungee nose tie idea had crossed my mind before but have not got round to trying it out.

Thought I'd make thist build fairly standard, but just had this nagging in my head...... so I've put a "C" bridle on as well :D
Give a much better wing profile. IMHO
