Abstract: The hexagonal kite has a generally central spar attach fitting having a series of receptacles therein, into which the six spars of the kite are installed. A peripheral tension member extends around the distal ends of the spars to define the hexagonal shape of the kite. The two upper or forwardmost spars are shortest, with the two lower or rearmost spars being longest and the two lateral spars being of intermediate length. This results in the kite surface behind the lateral spars having a larger area than the surface in front of the lateral spars, which results in greater stability and need for a smaller stabilizing tail. The bridle is generally centered on the somewhat forwardly placed spar attachment disc, resulting in the aerodynamic center being located behind the bridle for further stability.
