tom_0787 Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 I'm out decoying right now using hypaflap decoys on the magnet for the second time and the wings aren't flapping! It's reasonably windy and I have 3 of the wing spreader rods in each decoy but for some reason they are not fluttering their wings like they did before. Am I missing something when it comes to setting them up?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popa bear Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 if there's not a lot of wind drop down to one rod in each (less resistance) or try bending the front edge of the wing up slightly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbw1shrops Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 Try rolling the wings up at the back of them that should do the trick also angle them on the magnet normally angle mine slightly inwards 👍 Atb Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted August 21, 2016 Report Share Posted August 21, 2016 I only use one of the firmer rods in my Hypaflaps, try removing one or two of the rods you are using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I've only ever found that they scare them off. It's interesting that different people have different results with the same gear. Would love to get to the bottom of why this is, but realistically with so many variables, it would probably be impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
