Flowform 30 Kite Aerial Photography
- The 30 sq ft flowform -
Here we see the aerofoil shape of the cells a little more clearly, along with the arrangement of the fins on the underside, and the three-string bridle.

This model is 1.875m tall by 1.5m wide. Surface area is 2.81 sq.m
(6'2" x 4'11" - 30 sq.ft.)
As such, it is as large as I can handle comfortably single-handedly.

Originally, I intended to build this kite to the 50 sq ft pattern, but when I made the template for the ribs and laid it out on the floor, I just thought: "No way, Jose!".
It was huge! 2.7m (9ft) tip-to-tail. I'll keep the template, however, in case I ever need a kite to lift a small motor car.
