Monster Butterfly Kite
by Martin Karásek
(Chzech Republic)
First flight out in the field.
The "Butterfly" kite pictured was produced in 2008. We managed to break it 3 times during testing! Here are some basic specs...
Height = 252 cm
Width = 246 cm
Weight = 4.5 kg
Length of the tail = 1100 cm
Weight of the tail = 1.1 kg
Length of flying line = 120 m
Skeleton is made of wooden sticks 25x25mm (the middle one) and 20x20mm (on sides) connected by a metal cross. The sail material is linen.
To get the kite up in wind is easy but landing this thing is a little more difficult!
