Hey. Because people will pay good money for any "hold my beer" opportunity.-- reensure, Nov 10 2022 Peter Lynn C-Quad https://www.google....6LWltZw&sclient=imgAn old kite design (no longer made), but pretty indestructible & also good controllability. [neutrinos_shadow, Nov 13 2022] When you don't come back, I'm drinking your beer. [+]-- pertinax, Nov 10 2022 Not that I've experienced a hurricane first-hand, but I would think that there would be far too much turbulence for the kite to fly in even an approximation of "stable". (I do have a lot of experience with kite flying.) But it is definitely worth doing (un-manned) initial experiments, although a box kite is probably not the best choice. Something super-simple like an old C-Quad (see linky).-- neutrinos_shadow, Nov 13 2022 This sounds like a job for Buster the test dummy.-- RayfordSteele, Nov 14 2022 random, halfbakery
