Kite Project Part 3: Prototype11/6/2018 For this part of the kite project, we are building a prototype for our kite. So far, we have made multiple small scale prototypes to get an idea of what we want for our kite. These prototypes so far have not been helpful in planning the design for the kite. We constructed our kite using square wooden dowels to form a box kite. We then used hot glue and tape to put together the rods of the kite to finish the frame of the kite. After that, we finished by taping it and using hot glue to complete the model. We had encountered an obstacle while building the kite, when we had realized that the material we were using wasn't strong enough to support our kite in the air. We overcame this by simply changing the material. All that we need to do before our test flight is make sure the kite doesn't have any broken or damaged parts. (A diagram of a box kite frame.)
