Neither of these two kites are commonly offered for sale nowadays, so when I had the chance to get my hands on a second Omni, for a very reasonable price, and in a colour scheme different from the Omni I already had, I couldn't let the opportunity pass. Especially since the kite came with the handles that the Omni was originally sold with.
Like my first Omni, flight is very twitchy (which may, of course, say something about my quad-flying abilities ...).
The seller also had a Double D, which he was willing to throw in for not very much. Even though the kite had the same colour scheme as the Double D already in my collection (I've never seen a picture of a Double D with a different colour scheme, to be honest), it came with the original Double D handles, so in a moment of weakness ....
Flight is clearly more stable than the Omni, matching my earlier experience flying a Double D.
Of course, having two Omnis and two Double Ds now, I had to fly the two pairs!
It's difficult to fly a quad and take pictures at the same time!
Given the twitchiness of especially the Omnis, it's not very likely we'll ever fly PP quads in a festival routine ...
