A crosswind ST version with a long rigid kite:
I like that your array of spinners has an upward slant @PierreB
Maybe there some lift can be generated from that with cyclic blade control
Your sketch is Much better than the sketch I made (9 yrs ago = so cringe) with spinning (Spaghetti) trailing from a large kite
looked like it was designed to destroy itself instantly
Don’t worry - the designs eventually improved to being more horizontal
Hi Rod,
Thank you for your compliments which I return to you. The second video is even something that would resemble what we had discussed with Tallak, and which I tried to study.
In a crosswind version with only the two lines like the initial FlygenKite, it would be a sort of SuperflygenkiteDaisy. The propeller would be lightened, but implementation would remain difficult.
