Dagger Speedkite

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I cooked up something new, the dagger Speedkite. Designed for entry level speed flyers or just plain uncomplicated fun in higher winds. Wingspan is 185cm (73 inches). It flies from 3bft and up to 6bft and over. Framing is with 6mm Matrix carbon and 6mm Matrix lower spreader. Sail is made form Skytex 40 and 80 and 120g mylar.

Flown here by a normal trick kite pilot that has its hands on it for the first time:

And thanks to the foggy weather here, I even have a bad picture

In that video it is flown on Liros DC40 lines at 150 feet length. Which are rated at 120lbs with spliced loop. totally over sized for the given wind :) And well, its not really moving yet, its staying in the air without trouble :)
