Young  -  DY Kite


Patent: GB 1.211.347 - 1970

 

(Fig. 1)

 

"A kite with an elastic element (e.g. a spring 11) and a means (e.g. a bobbin 13) for coarse adjustment. The kite may have a ring 14 to which a tail may be attached."

 

 

  

(Fig. 2 and 3)

 

 

"The third string 12 caries bobbin 13 which by adding or subtracting turns enables coarse adjustment of the effective lenght of the thrird string 12."

 

 

(Fig. 4 and 5)

 

 

The kite could not fly without a tail, so we attached the Skyro-Gyro Spinning Kite  Tail (US 2768473), which was not enough for this kite. Ring 14 was missing on our kite.

 

 

(Fig. 6 and 7)
