Matrix: Flexi vs Carl - part 3

We've done UL/SULs, we've done Super-venteds, next up were the Standards!

Unlike the other Flexifoil kites, the Standard Matrix came to me as a sail with a bunch of spars, the winglet supports and a complete bridle. So I first had to frame the sail, get the necessary small bits and bobs (connectors, end caps, arrow nocks, etc), make the stand-offs, and bridle it. 

Kite R2F, and off to the field we go!

Flexi Standard flew fine, so no issues with the framing and bridling.

CR Standard flew solid, possibly a bit crispier than the Flexi one.

So let's fly them together, shall we?

There was a small but noticeable speed difference between the two, but rather than adjust the bridle, we thought we'd make use of the speed difference for flying refuels. 

Solid refuels, every single time!
