Was wondering how successful Rose was flying this kite? My hobby is kite flying and typically one needs to put a slight bow in small cross stick, wire in this case to balance the kite, and then adjust the bridle connection either up or down according to wind conditins. Of course if there is a very strong wind, one just has to add more tail for stabilization. Very interesting project!
