A 2-Skewer Delta Kite

Thank you for your nice design.
Back from a holiday in France. The best piece of plastic was an old Auchan supermarket bag, which was just big enough for an 80% scale 2 skewer Delta!
It flies perfectly, no trimming, just floats up in a 5MPH breeze. Really stable without a tail, and it has yet to point in any direction except upwards!
Above ~ 5MPH it gets a sort of pitch oscillation. Probably that's the airframe bending and recovering.
Very pleased for 40 minutes work :)
As mentioned earlier, there's more kite-making on this site than you can poke a stick at :-)
