Abstract: A self propelled kite having a frame including a nose piece, a stringer backwardly extending from the nose piece, and two spars attached to the nose piece equidistant and outwardly diverging in an upward inclination from the stringer. A substantially V-shaped fairing is connected between the spars and beneath the stringer. A propeller driven by a small internal combustion engine is the prime mover, being located above the fairing and mounted to the stringer. The kite may also have a rudder with rudder control mounted above the stringer and rearward to the propeller. The kite may also contain landing struts, air intake ports for unassisted take off, and cargo carrying apparatus.
