Starlin's Learning the Physics behind the Flying of a Kite

    There are many things you have to know about flying a kite for example a kite needs Lift vs Gravity. For example Wind moving across from the sail of the kite creates the pressure for the kite to fly. So in this case it Lifts the kite up and makes it able to fly. The Gravity of the kite is the downward force, The force is creates by the weight that the kite has.

    Although there are forces like Lift Vs Gravity there is also a force named " Drag " Kites include Drag in many ways for example Drag is created by the wind resistance on the kites surface. Another example is that the turbulence behind the kite can also be a result. 
    Dihedral is also a force from a kite Dihedral is another word for geomatry Dihedraal describes the angle formed when two wings come together. 

    " Yaw " do you know what that means ? Yaw is a action that rotates about a kites vertical axis. 

    " Pitch " Pitch is the rotating action about a kites lateral axis. 

    And last but not least " Roll " ​Roll is the rotating action about a Kite's longitudinal axis.

     Wow there is alot of axis's in Kites's :).
