Marconi: The Marconi will dance at the end of your string with so little pull, you'll have to check to make sure it is still there! Kite historians know that Marconi invented the radio before anyone made radio towers. So he used a kite to lift an antenna for the first Trans-Atlantic broadcast.

Fly with a matching Transition Tail, or feed it line like a fighter. The built-in stabilizing keel will keep your Marconi from spinning, but you can still maneuver it nicely.

The Fled – when nothing else will fly. Combine the best design elements to a Sled and a Flare kite, and you get the Fled.

They are 5 feet high and 6.5 feet wide. Use 100-200 pound line in 3-12 mph of wind. The Fled is very forgiving. It will fly with or without a drogue, and with or without bowing the spreader spar.
