Be cheap!

What's the cheapest, but still much appreciated, glider toy you can
give your friends (or yourself) for Christmas?

MKIV "high tech" yaw string or Quiet Vent kit (reduces wind noise from
Mecaplex flip-out vent by 10dba in my ASH26E).

Now available at Cumulus Soaring too.

Merry Christmas!

Tony,

An excellent idea! Must admit I had not even considered it, but you'd
be able to tell which way she was leaning or which way the wind was
blowing. Not a bad start towards understanding the distaff side.

I'll have to get back to you on optimal placement for those 10 MKIV
yaw strings. This will require extensive testing for sure and I may
need to find some, ahh,more modern faster moving "test vehicles".

For the lady in your life: two MKIVs and a Quiet Vent, stategically
applied.

Moet is suggested as a pre-installation wetting agent...

Extra points for counter-rotating yaw strings!

I admit to the glass of muscat before reading this thread,
but my gosh I am laughing hard.
Maybe it is due to never having been a wife.

I will have to resume visiting r.a.s. more than once a month.

Thanks, guys.

Have there been any reports of these products interfering with the
PowerFLARM units?
