How can I make a delta kite? SIMPLEST - CHEAPEST

[allaturcha]

Hello,

I would like to make a full size (over 2m) dual line delta stunt kite.

But I can't find any professional kite structural parts in my counrty.

Also my budget is very limited.

So I need your help for suggestions,

What are alternative cheap kite fabrics and rods material ?

Also I will need simple delta kite plan and construction notes.

Thanks in advance

"Cheap," "simple," and "very limited" are all relative terms! However, 2 meters is specific. A dual-line kite of this size would require modern materials for any decent kind of performance.

Are you mainly wanting to make a kite of your own design, or merely get a fun kite in the air for just a few bucks? If the latter, you can buy a 1.8 m dualie from China, delivered, for about $12. (I bought a nice one for $10.50 delivered.) If the former, you can start by buying the kite and using its frame and bridle, plus you can use the sail as a pattern for your handmade sail.

I really hate to say this, but if all you want is something to fly around just for fun, get one of the Chinese-made kites with lines and straps. There are hundreds of them on e-Bay. You can probably buy four of them, assorted, for what the materials alone would cost.
