Plans for ultra-lightweight, collapsible, multi-cell
tetrahedral kites
This is a NO-SPAM ZONE. See the "email" page.
With the TetraLite Kites Assembly Plans and Instruction Manual you can build any of 8 "standard models" or design your own custom configurations. There is practically no end to the variations possible using the unique method of construction explained in the manual. All that is needed to build these kites are a few simple tools (X-acto knife, pliers, pocket fingernail clipper) and only five commonly available materials (six, if you count the bridle lines). And since the individual components are basically the same throughout the kite, the assembly goes quickly. Every aspect of these kites is covered in the manual from conception to flight. Included in the manual is detailed information about the materials, parts quantities for the 8 standard models, how to determine material quantities for custom designs, color-coded assembly illustrations for all 8 standard models, step-by-step assembly instructions, full scale patterns for creating sail making templates, flying instructions and tips.
Update! The TetraLite Kites Assembly Plans and Instructions Manual
is now available for free download which allows you to print the manual yourself,
although you really only need to print the sail making template patterns because
the manual can be viewed on your computer. Click HERE
