- Brief description of this plan
- The Mouse kite is a ‘wind bag’ type of kite – meaning that it has no internal ribs or lines, only a front and back skin connected by an edging strip. The kite needs quite a strong wind to fly due to the relatively small lift producing sail area. Once in flight with a suitable drogue it is quite stable! The kite is extremely easy to make, and I think that you could easily make your own modifications to produce your own original (nearly!) design!! Try making the kite with different graphics – maybe a happy mouse!!
- Comments about this plan
- The kite took two evenings to design and build from the initial idea to the final bridling.
