Built the 2 Skewer Rokkaku last night, and flew it this morning, to see what all this is about ;)
What a brilliant little kite!
It went up with ease in 3 to 5 km/hr breeze, and stayed there, then flew for hours as the wind meter gradually built up to an average 10 kph with a max gust of around 14. Came back down into my hand after hitting 400 feet effortlessly and hanging there seemingly motionless...
Thanks for the plans, instructions and site -
a great resource!
As mentioned earlier, there's more kite-making on this site than you can poke a stick at :-)
