7 m2 NPW on Crosswind-Cableway (AWE Encampment notes)
For many years stunt-kite fliers have
preformed an amusing trick of flying a kite via an upwind anchor equipped
with a pulley or ring. This doubles back the lines to put the flier under
the kite to allow a sort of close dance. In AWE, we have discovered this
rig enables the flier to self-launch and land long-lined, with various
advantages. At the kitefarm two days ago, we successfully flew a 7m2 NASA
Power Wing back and forth along our crosswind cableway in dog-stake mode,
with both launch and flight happening from the same point.
Comment and development of this topic will be occurring here.
