don't need to know about getting up and planing. Just want to know how low the wind can be before the thing will be unflyable. (would try myself but don't own one yet)

Im not sure about the Waroo but my I was flying my 9m Rebel in probably 3-4knots today! To get it in the air i had to wait for a gust and once it was up I had to do kite loops and figure of eights to keep it in the air. Pretty boring though

Ok, ok i was just estimating... Im not exactly sure wat the wind was... but i couldn't feel anything on my face so it would have had to be pretty low. If for one second i stopped moving the kite it would just fall out of the sky.

round 6 knots is min u can fly pending on kite size and its not all that fun either as figure 8s the hole time.or they fall out of the sky...

yeh i got to agree about 6 knots but it will need a hot launchand worked a fair bit in the sky. ... or you could just run backwards really reall fast :)
