FF04a plans

This kite can be made as big as you want. I made one that is 5 meters long (about 250 square feet)

Cody kites can also be made quite large. Delta's as well. Heck most any kite can be scaled up.

But the soft kites are easier to build and transport (imho)

Mate, don't do it!

Trying to design a 'beach baby' at the moment. Well the flintstones dino to be exact.

7m long, 4.4m widest circumfrence. Manually on paper with scale models and stuff. If it all works, its going to be a miracle! and take about 20-30 metres of fabric.

Been looking around the net for pattern making software.

The only thing that I've found so far that doesn't involve making a dress are high-end software packages + pattern plugins with a 12 month learning curve.

One thing tho thats worth looking at are soft toys and how they are constructed (specially for ground dwellers),
