The Spark kite produces power in tests
Further testing of the Spark kite with increased load. The kite flies very stable and the test was a success.
The team have been working hard and conditions were good for logging power production curves on our biggest kite. 3 flights was done the same day. We peaked 16kw in 4-9m/s wind and in the last flight we flew production cycles for 29 minutes.
