I have asked this question last year, but I need some clarification. I have a 08 rev 13m. I like how it flies but sometimes it seems to be over-sheeted. What knot settings would help? Thanks

I use the middle knot on both lines, works well for me. Some like to shorten the front lines(knot closet to the kite). Try different set ups and see what works for you.

I'd just keep the knots on the same front and rear, but trim in the depower a hair. Shouldn't take too much.

It really should not matter if your lines are all the same length.
