Kite Buggy 2: Steel

 

Our second kite buggy incorperates successful design elements from the first design (see KiteBuggy1_Wood ) while increasing overall performance through the use of steel siderails. The finalized design has performed stabily when tested up to 35 mph, and has withstood a season of abuse admirally. Currently, I am working on a third design that will facilitate disassembly for easy transport.
