Asmara-Der neue von Skyforce

@ Morten DK

If jou move central -t 52cm at nose you must cut lower spreader shorter to 74 cm.
Lower spreder connectors 90.5cm at nose.
Outer standoff shorter 5mm. = 27mm.
And Asmara yo -yo `s like magic.

Hmmm...My lower spreaders are already 74cm... Maybe I'll just cut them to 73,5 and see what happens. I just meassured the distance from wingtip to wingtip = 243cm -doesn't the plan say 238cm ?? What do you have ?

Morten

HI,
My Asmara measures from WT to WT exact 240cm
My UQS are exactly 74 cm
Centre T is positioned at 52 cm from Nose
Lower Spreaders are positioned at 90,05 cm from nose
The clear measure between Sail and UQS at the inner Standoff is 27,5 cm
The clear measure between Sail and UQS at the outer Standoff is 28,5 cm

and here are some pics

I hope it will be helpfull

christoph: How funny is that - I just too almost the same pictures of mine:

Looks like it's more or less the same - I'll keep it as it is for now, and see how it flies.

Thank you VERY much for the trouble

HI,
I think your StandOffs are not exactly 90° to the lower spreaders, if you position them a little more to the LE the bow will become a little straighter.

But I think your "Asmazko" looks pretty fine :H: :H: :H:

And now I wish 2-3 Bft to you and have a lot of fun :-O

Das Nazko-Design ist immer wieder einfach nur Zucker :H: :H: :H: Ob nun am Nazko oder am Asmara

for me, the curve is too important...
change the length of the lower spreaders, or try this first:
untight the loops at the wingtips, maybe it'll help

but yo can try to fly like this and it could be a good kite too

Wery beautyful Morten :H:

And don't forget to send me all the pics you have of Nazko and/or Asmara
Minimum resolution: 800pixels * 800pixels

You mean the curve is too strong at my Asmara too?

for the two on this page, yes...

but try to fly before, maybe it work great... since I didn't try the kite, I can't say if it's good or not...
If you think it fly great, don't change anything that's my advice...

My kite is very tricky in this setup, but I'm even a little rookie.
My Prob are the big turns that the Asmara does, but I don't know if its in coherence with the "bow"
Shorten the inner bridle didn't help much.

that is the reason why I cut a little bit the lower spreaders, and try to untight a little the tensioner at the wing tips

Merci bièn,
now I know what to do
I tensioned the sail hard, using a piece of bridlecord instead of a rubbercord.
So I cut the P300 to 73,5cm and untight the tensioner a little or use a rubbercord.

Are there any Asmara plans in Nazko design??? After building two Nazko's (100% and 85%) I am realy in love with this design.
Already looked at Skyforces website but can't find any

Greetings John

there is no asmara plan with the design of the nazko, but you can easely adapt the design, you just have to respect the proportions...

My Asmara UL has also this "curved spreaders" (P200) and it flies great without any damages up to now.

Wenn die untere QS also so gebogen ist, so ist das kein Grund zur Panik, einfach mal den Drachen probieren.

wie gesagt, mein Asmara fliegt seeehr grosse Kurven, sodass ich die UQS jewils um 5mm kürzen werde, ansonsten gefällt mir der Drachen sehr sehr gut.

christoph

Ich überlege mir das mit der kürzeren uQS auch schon seit einiger Zeit, da ich so vielleicht wirklich noch mehr aus dem Drachen holen kann (ok, der Drachen kann bereits jetzt mehr als ich).

Ich wollte mit dem oberen Post nur sagen, dass man sich nicht Sorgen machen muss, wenn eine uQS mal gebogen ist. z.T. ist das bei einigen Drachen ja so gewollt (es gibt viele Drachen zum Kaufen, welche bereits am Boden eine gekrümmte uQS aufweisen).

Gruss

Hmmm, but it is strange that the shape of Skyforce's lower spreader is different from mine, Koebi's and Christoph's considering that we have used the same plan and that we apparently are using the same length of rods ??? I'm just affraid that if I shorten the LS, the fittings will have to move further up the LE and the cut-outs will no longer fit... On the other hand, a LS that is so bend will be more likely to break during e.g. a hard spike :O

Skyforce, are you sure that your LS are 74 cm and what is the length of your stand-offs when mounted on the kite (sail to end of endcap) ? Could I pursuade you to take out the meassuring tape ?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Morten
