Wanna watch a kite’s test flight? In Jersey an experimental kite is having its first flight.
This is the most complex kite I have ever seen! It is designed by Sash Reading with Ivan Morison from the Studio 10 Arch at the University of Westminster. The kite features 1700 3d printed connectors, carbon fibre rods and cubenfibre aerospace fabric and was fabricated and engineered by Queen and Crawford.
If it goes to the market I want to buy one!
