ABSTRACT:
A versatile kite having three unique features: a dihedral and double parabolic camber provided entirely by the geometry and interaction between its two spars and its flight skin, a keel that may be adjusted from zero to several inches using a simple wing nut to create a fold in the kites flight skin, and the use of light weight wind responsive sail turbines attached to the wing tips of the kite to create excellent balance and control, provide an aerial display.
