Cool, welcome! I just started this community today as I'm starting to post photos from a festival this weekend.

I'm on the west coast, but I've traveled around for kites quite a bit. There is a festival in Long Beach Island, NJ coming up soon (Oct 10, Oct 11). https://lbifly.com/ There will definitely be quad kite fliers there.

The black/red is my own build called Essentials. I have details about them on my website, including open source build plans and 3d printing models for fittings: https://watty.us

    Oh, that's really cool! I have been wheedling about trying to build my own kites. I've had a 3D printer for a while, and recently acquired a nice sewing machine... I might give your indoor model a shot this winter. I love some of the more custom patterns you've made, especially the plaid and the "deal with it". Very inspiring!

    Unfortunately I am busy the weekend of that festival. I was also busy the last couple times I've seen festivals down in NJ. I need to look further ahead and get one on my calendar before everything fills up...
