hm, but i would think that if you had all the time for preparation, you could still get really good in Bird flying.....?? i mean, you have like 4 months, and thats enough to figure out what works and what doesn't, and if you use kits from SO and just change it up...wouldn't that work?? personally, i would like to try it...that would be a nice change...

SO doesnt make kits for it. SO doesnt make kits for most things actually xD

if you saw one up close I think you'd agree with me. Its a really really diffcult divice I'm not sure I could do
