| As I posted in the Condor flights thread a couple of days ago, I saw a set of these on eBay and couldn't resist. they came this morning, so I took a couple of pictures before I left for work. This is how they come packaged: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]As you can see from the packaging these are marked as M which i can only presume means medium. Anyway here is one of the 'flights' next to the setup that I am currently using which is an inbetween (23mm) cosmo stem with a fit flight air kite flight. To be honest the length of the flight and stem combination is virtually identical (without measuring): [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]As far as the rigidity of the flight is concerend, they seem to be very flexible and I would say that they are very similar to the fit flights airs in that respect. This is what they look like on a set of darts: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]With regards to how they fly, that's a difficult call at the moment, because recently I have been using kites and super kites. however, I threw three this morning and they fly very straight. On first impressions I have to say that I am very impressed by this product. This could changed after prolonged use, depending upon how well they wear, but I cannot see why they should be any different to fixed cosmo stems and fit flight air flights. |

| Yes they are one piece Larry - can't wait for A180 to get some in to give them a go, although I can't see them replacing Cosmo's for me (mainly coz I've got shed loads of Cosmo gear lol) |

| Probably - and they will most likely justify it saying you get the flight and stem for the same price lol |

| I paid £1.24 for them, basically because fortunately for me, no one else appeared to have spotted them on eBay!!! |

| If they were £1.24 in the shops then I possibly would consider switching from Cosmo's - that is a great bargain you got there |

| To add to my review earlier now that I have had a good go with them I would have to say that I love them and I think they might actually be better than cosmos. The reason I say that is that reading the literature they say they are designed for tight grouping. This is achieved by their one piece moulding with a groove down the 'shaft' where it meets the flight and no 'lump' as per the cosmos where the shaft sits inside the flight. They fly awesome as well!!! |
