Flat & Bowed |
"The lifting surface is a single plane, usually a simple
geometric shape. The surface may be bowed, decreasing surface
area and increasing drag for improved stability. Diamonds,
Hexagons, Eddys, Rokkakus, Edos, Cobras, Bermudas are all
examples of Flat or Bowed kites. "

A great looking kite! Reserve a few hours for this
one. The tinkertoy fitting in the center is
available in Kite Studio's Spar to Spar Fittings. |

It's a very hard pulling kite, & because of it's "high
aspect ratio" sail, it's rather unstable in the air. The
drogue settles it down very nicely though.

This kite is easy to hand launch and is steady in the sky.
Well, almost steady; it slowly slides side to side about
6" in a sea breeze.

The good part about this is that tall kites tend to be
more stable than wide ones. So, if like me, you have too
many kites that enjoy their freedom and move all over the
place, you might want to try this one. |

the great thing about Eddy kites is they look like kites,
are easy to fly and they can fly with or without a tail |

Kite flying with children is a great way to spend any day.
Why not turn it into an educational activity as well by
teaching them to make their own kites |
