Carbon Tube - Exel Cruise 6mm (5.9/4.0mm)x 1m

Carbon Tube - Exel Cruise 6mm (5.9/4.0mm)x 1m

Value Pack Available!

High quality epoxy resin pultruded Carbon Fibre

Carbon Fibre Tube in a range from 4 to 12mm outsite diameter, larger sizes available on request. Standard lengths 1m and 1.5m Our Carbon Fibre Tube comes in either a pultruded construction, pultruded is a stiff carbon that maintains a degree of flex.

The primary advantage of using carbon tubes for a project, vs. fiberglass or metal, is its high stiffness to weight ratio. Carbon fibre is stiff and very lightweight, making it ideal for rigid frame construction. There is a degree of flexibility to the carbon depending on diameter (small diameter has a lot more flex than large diameter tube)

Pultruded carbon tube, also known as graphite rods or unidirectional carbon fiber tube, are used in many industrial applications and aerospace designs, as well as in hobbies such as RC airplanes and RC sailboats, dual line kites and single line kites, and just about anywhere else you want a stiff, strong rod.

Cutting Carbon - We recommend the easiest and most cost effective way to cut carbon is with a fine tooth junior hacksaw... wrap the carbon with tape, and score the whole circumference with the blade before cutting all the way through. Also wearing eye protection and a dust mask for safety is a good idea!

Flexifoil Blurr

Flexifoil Blurr

New buggy speed kite for intermediate to advanced riders

New for April 2008, and the culmination of two years work, is Flexifoil's latest bespoke and highly advanced aerofoil, the Blurr. This speed-focused buggy engine has been designed to excel in two areas: speed and stability, and will get you moving amazingly fast with a high level of stability for ease of use. Moving into the specialised arena of speed buggying has never been easier or more accessible, so if you're currently flying a Bullet, Rage or Blade and want to go faster, the Flexifoil Blurr will give you a phenomenal leap in speed. The Blurr is best suited to competent fliers who really want a fast ride, but without compromising on the control and stability normally sacrificed with a full-on race kite.

Blurr Details

Features
The Flexifoil Blurr features a new high aspect ratio planform designed to reduce drag and increase speed. The swept leading edge provides a solid and stable canopy, and the closed tip cells keep them inflated to reduce drag even further. As featured on the Flexifoil Blade, the 'Triple A' bridle adjuster system, allows pitch (angle of attack) adjustment for individual preference. The Sora ripstop nylon sail is double-coated and waterproof which provides the perfect combination of strength, tear resistance and long-term durability. The pre-stretched Dyneema bridle combines maximum strength with low stretch benefits, and is un-sleeved to reduce weight and drag. Rib tab points are reinforced where the bridle is sewn onto the kites to prevent tearing. Every internal rib vent has been reinforced to help prevent the ribs from 'blowing out' in the event of a sudden impact.

Available in four sizes for almost every useable wind-speed: 2.5m, 3.5m, 5m and 7m. Smaller kites are ideal for lighter riders and high winds and the larger kites are designed for light winds and heavier flyers. All sizes are available in the three distinctive Flexifoil colourways: Petrol, Rasta and Hulk. Supplied as kite only, or complete with Dyneema lines & the new Pro-Link quad handles which give a totally connected experience and cleaner strop-management via an innovative new pin system.

Kite only package Includes:
- Kite,
- Instructions,
- Sticker,
- Registration pack,
- Free repair card
- Rucksack.


Warning: The larger sizes produce considerable pull in strong winds. Always read the manual included before use.
