- Thousands were made for the US Navy and Paul Garber filed his patent in August 1944 to pre-date all the subsequent claims to be "first" with the present day concept of the steerable kite.
- In the case of steerable kites, skill of the operator is paramount; but anything that could make the kite fly to a tighter turning radius, open its radius of action in the "wind window" or launch and land more easily was a critical element.
- Steerable or aerobatic kites require a rigid frame for top performance, and a first solution to the problem of obtaining a good stiffness factor against weight was to turn to another outdoor sport, archery.
- Taxying is easy using the steerable nose-wheel, with all four extremities and the nose fully visible through the bubble canopy.
- Use balloon ripstop on a 110-degree narrow Delta steerable kite, and you will soon discover why the spinnaker nylon is best.
- Who better to teach than Don Dunford, originator of so many designs for steerable kites.
- Back to the beginning, and the archery shafts which led us into carbon tubes and the generation of so many new designs for steerable aerobatic kites.
- The steerable revolution
- If anyone is ever to be held responsible for the steerable revolution, it has to be one of these two eccentric personalities.
- As the control lines for aerobatic or steerable kites are rarely longer than 50 metres or 150ft, there is no special requirement for a "winding" reel.
- The Pathfinder Platoon is the only brigade sub-unit to use this free-fall technique, Which enhances the chances of avoiding detection and involves leaving the aircraft at heights of up to 25,000 feet, followed by a long free-fall descent and then landing using steerable parachutes.
- Hence the term to -;stand-off-; or lift the sail away from the plane of the framework on the steerable extended Delta designs.
- Left: Typical of the rigid frame using glass fibre tubing on the earlier steerable deltas is seen on this example.
