This version of ring flight is superior in craftsmanship and handling to anything I've seen. There
is a slight issue with the line "squeaking" ( due to oil on the filament from the lubricated reel)
but the creator assures that if you keep the line clean with soap and water, the sound is
diminished. Otherwise, an excellent prop and teaching video.

This is by far the best ring flight on the market. If you were to vanish a ring and make it appear
on your key ring, it would look like this. This is what the ring flight should have been a long
time ago and it's finally here. The reactions you get from the spectators are pure astonishment and
worth gold. The quality of materials are superb for this beautifully made prop. It's made from a
real car key so the outside is made to take abuse and be strong just like any regular car key would.
The line is an abrasion resistant line, not regular fishing line. It is much more stronger, much
more durable, and built to last.
It comes with a key ring, and 3 random keys to help make
it look even more legit then it already does. It also comes with 3 clips that are very easy to
exchange if you don't like the lobster clip that's already on it. The clips themselves are very
well made and can hold almost any size ring, even a bulky class ring.
This is also a
locking ring flight, meaning that once it retracts into place, the line and reel are locked, to
where the spectator themselves can take the ring off the clip if they want to, and all you have to
do is stand back and hold one of the keys while they take the ring off. To get the reel to retract
again and get back to action is so simple that you can do it with the ring flight in your pocket and
not even have worry about it.
The Revolution also comes with 12 different car logo
stickers so that you can easily make it look like the car key you already have or the one you really
want. But if all this wasn't enough, here is the best part of this entire prop, and that's the dvd.
Not only do you get the best ring flight ever made, you also get a dvd that tells you everything you
need to know about it and how to take care of it.
This dvd covers EVERYTHING you need to
know. Dave shows you how to take the ring flight apart piece by piece, from opening it up (which is
simply pulling it apart), to oiling the line, to replacing the line (it comes with extra line just
in case), to taking out the spring, to putting everything back together again. It is extremely
detailed for every step, and it includes a performance as well as a troubleshooting section. What
this means is you will never have to buy another ring flight EVER AGAIN.
This does what
departure should have done. If this ring flight ever has anything go wrong, you can simply pop in
the dvd and find out how to fix it (unlike Departure). Departure kept breaking, and once it broke
you were done, but the ring flight revolution won't break for a very long time and if anything does
happen to it, you will actually know how to fix it instead of having to buy a new one (like
Departure). It puts Departure to shame, badly. The 2 year warranty speaks volumes about the
quality of this product. I seriously doubt you will ever need to use it in those 2 years time, but
it's still great to have just in case.
If anything does happen outside of those 2 years,
you can simply contact Dave Bonsall and he will fix it for a small fee. Since the dvd explains
everything you need to know about the maintenance, the only way you would ever need to contact Dave
is if a part broke that was inside the revolution itself, which I don't see that happening for years
and years and years, if ever. The price is a flat out steal, more like highway robbery with what
you're getting here.
In addition to this wonderful device, I also have Ignition on the
revolution as well, so it gives me 2 incredible miracles on the same key ring. I have this on me at
all times now, and will never leave my home without it. I love it so much and I cannot praise it
high enough. Don't worry about the price tag, because these are hand made quality and worth 5 times
the price. It's the ring flight you have been looking for ever since the ring flight was invented.
It's the final word on ring flights.
It has surpassed every ring flight that has ever
come before it and every ring flight that will ever come after it. A 100/100, absolutely
spectacular.

This is easily the best ring flight I have ever seen and I own five of them. The attachment device
is much better then others and makes the handling much more secure. LL

Hands down, this is the best ring flight you’re ever going to get. Sure, it’s a bit pricey, but not
too bad, and that only limits the competition of others in your working area of doing the same thing
and is an investment you won’t regret. I have a generic version and wanted to purchase this one for
the lighter weight and, primarily, the aluminum spindle. The only reason I give this four stars
instead of five, is that the locking mechanism isn’t as strong and as consistent on this BMW version
as it is on my generic version. And that is inherent with the way this one has to be constructed.
It’s not a big deal, but because of how I present the spectator’s ring, it is important to me.
There is actually something super simple you can do to bump up the consistency of the effectiveness
of the locking mechanism, but because the item doesn’t come with the one small item that you could
opt to use for that, it gets 4 stars. Otherwise, this is excellent and there is not, and I’m
convinced never will be, a better ring flight.

Amazing, powerful, and easy to do. Best part, require a little practice.
My most expensive
purchase but only reason is to keep it out reach for those who is not serious about being magician.
For those who is serious magician and has years of experience but skeptical about this
product. This is exactly as what other people's review say. This is pure gold.
If I were
you, I'll add it to cart and buy it.

I bought one of these about 3 years ago from David himself! He is very nice to work with. He stands
behind all of his keyfobs. I bought the Toyota version, and lets just say the quality was amazing.
Everything looks legit. I must say I was a big scared to do maintinence on it myself, so if I ever
needs a fix up I'm happy to spend $25 to get it fixed. It's such an amazing ring flight. The only
thing that might be a problem is the noise it makes when the ring flies back to the keys. But I
figured out a solution. I wear suit pants and have the back right pocket tight. I lean over just
slightly so the ring won't enter the pocket quite yet. It will just hang on the outside pocket, but
it's covered by my suit jacket. Then I show my hands empty, then I pat the keys and that movement
of patting the keys pulls the ring in. Now you're home free! If you're in a busy environment you
seriously don't have to worry about noise. It's minimal because of all the cushion your clothing
will provide. BUY IT! David is seriously one of the easiest and kindest people ever to deal with.

The quality is indeed as advertised and I've not seen any others that compare. You will not be
disappointed!
Best ring flight ever....
