Hi guys I wonder if you could help me out, I've lost a few parts off my kite this afternoon, does any one know where to buy R-sky parts from, I've tried looking on there Web site, they sell a few spare parts but not the ones I'm looking for, any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

What parts as they may be generic. People like Highwaymen may stock them, or Hengistkites who brought remains of the FA stock.

So it's the nocks you need ?

Are they like this

If so they are Apex ones and I'm not sure where you can get those.

You could probably use Exel or HQ ones if you fit them as a pair as they are similar.

Try Go-Kites

Steve .... what the hell are those orange things ! They look a bit like the ones that prism stick on their kites which I can't say I like.

The ones on most R sky are the FSD Nocks. I personally like the HQ nock which Tim (Benson) can sell you. They are quick and easy to tie and untie.

Good luck Harv :cool:

Those orange things are arrow shaft nocks. If they are like these an Archery suppliers will stock them.

They look like the FSD ones on my genesis (though I haven't looked at it in a while)

FA used to sell FSDs and when they closed they sold their stock to Hengistkites so try them for a UK source.

Bilboquet also stock FSDs if needed. Buy more than you need to make postage reasonable.
