The train kites are build with a cell width of 30cm, that gives us a wingspan of aproximatly 150cm.
We use - different to most of the planes - a more thin framing. Giving us the opportunity to fly in even light winds.
- Front spreader: 6mm CFK
- Rear spreader: 4mm CFK
- Longerons: 4mm CFK
- Sail framing: 4mm CFK
- Cell framing: 4mm Holz
The rod in the upper part of the front middle part is made by 4mm CFK, because of the fitting of the „ring with pulley”.
All kites are build after a plan of Nico van der Berg, because it’s very authentic.
