KAP Foils<br />

Kite aerial photography (KAP) is photography generated<br />

by lifting a camera into the sky through use of a kite. The<br />

camera is triggered either remotely or automatically to<br />

take aerial shot and can be attached directly to the kite,<br />

but is usually secured to an adjustable rig suspended from<br />

the kite line. With this elevated view, pilots can capture<br />

landscapes, objects, architecture, and people in entirely<br />

new ways. The beginning of KAP dates back to the late 19th<br />

century. Aerial photography from kites is, in fact, one of the<br />

oldest forms of remote sensing of the Earth´s surface.<br />

The KAP Foils developed by German kite enthusiast Ralf Beutnagel are reliable<br />

and very stable lifter kites for a camera rig. They have been used successfully<br />

since 2006 and have impressed many Kite Aerial Photographers by their flight<br />

characteristics. The wind range of the KAP Foil is fairly wide. These kites perform<br />

very well even in ground winds. Even KAP Foil 8.0 is more than sufficient<br />

to carry heavier cameras in light winds. In stronger winds, all KAP Foils fly very<br />

stable without slipping sideways.<br />

KAP FOILS<br />

KAP Foils generate considerable pull. For experienced<br />

pilots only. Strict observation of mentioned age and wind<br />

range is highly recommended.<br />
