Any idea if this will work on a normal kite, ones for land?

The mount works nicely on a normal, one-string kite, if the kite is large enough. You just have to make sure there's enough friction on the string. I use a couple of extra loops, and no knots. It doesn't have to be a giant kite, but unless there is a TON of wind I don't think it will work on the typical $4 drugstore kite. I've found it helpful to put the mount twenty feet or so below the kite itself. If the mount is right up next to the kite, the jittering of the kite makes the GoPro footage uselessly shaky whether it's video or photo.

As long as the kite has 2 strings close to one another it will. You tangle the 2 strings into the green peaces on the picture, with the camera looking down at you.

I honestly cant say. I bought it to try with an old Flight Yoke that I had - it didn't work but it wasn't expensive so that is why I thought it was worth trying. Cheers.

Anything that can catch the wind is at risk for kite action and a solar panel is no exception. I have mine very sturdily mounted to a car port frame. In a recent wind storm, they survived 60 mile an hour wind gusts even though the tarp on the car port was ripped to shreds. So the panels are sturdy if properly mounted, but you still need to consider direction and effect of the air flow.

I am using these weights on a logo brand canopy now and find them to work very well. Simple and easy to use. Keep in mind that these weights are only 5 pounds each and work well in moderate windy conditions. Strong winds and strong wind gust will be a problem no matter what you are using except for a good ground anchor. I hope this helps.

This is not a problem for standard 10x10' canopies. I have used mine on several different size poles. Given that you can gently turn the plastic bolt that provides pressure and holds the weight in place. I just love me weights and the company that makes them. The one I use it on the most is a 1 1/2", also used on 1" and 2"

I didn't try it, we only tried it with geese and it did NOT work. Also, the quality is poor at best, they are designed for outdoor use the paint came off and the tails don't stay on well. I would not recommend these.

Hi there, the line Mount works fine with the Center lines and the Hero 3. The rubber Clips are verry tight and hold the came in place even when you Crash the kite.Hope the answer helps.Dirk

These are mostly for learning how to control the kite while standing on 2 feet. While you might be able to landboard with the B3, you will not with the B2. If the conditions were right, the B3 might have a chance at pulling you off the ground, but I doubt it. These kites do not have a harness hookup and that is what makes them not suitable for actual landboarding or kiteboarding. They are simply to learn how to fly a kite.

Since a seagull is a bird I don't see why these will not work. These spikes are meant to make it uncomfortable for birds to land on spots. I have had these on the roof of a big comercial building now for a few years and it did take a few weeks to get the birds to stop landing on it. The only thing is make sure that you use a really good grade of Silicon to fasten these to the roof like a marine grade or better rating. Don't be disappointed if they don't stop landing there right away it will take some time to break the habit of landing there.

Probably not... unless your parafoil kite is a 4-line kite with the two center lines coming together in a "V" and attaching to your bar.

Yes it will work but when you put pressure on just the tip it wears the felt off the back of the sand paper very quickly and then it does not vibrate as well. You can rotate the sandpaper twice to get more usage out of a piece. If you use the point a lot it will wear the hooks off the backer plate also. Try to lay the point as flat as possible.

Yes. I use mine at the beach all the time! Great kite at a great price. Get an additional line spool to fly a lot higher.

I use these on Leki poles. Not sure if they are same size, but most likely. Great tips

When I purchased this I also purchased a kit with longer stakes & mallet. Worked great. I don't know about the weights but you might be able to do that. Have fun at the beach!

We were never able to find out, as the kite twisted and broke almost as soon as it was airborne. Should you purchase this kite, we suggest using it in only the slightest of breezes.

I have used some of them on my St_hl: blower, tiller and edger. Not an easy job though, in retrospective I should have just bought a new KM set. The trimmer attachment does not work (reverse rotation).
