To steer a kite is one thing - to actually make lift - with a
battery-driven motor? I am sure it cannot be done using
only lego parts - to lift the batterybox alone it will require
a tremendous wingspan :) Even if it is made like the hover-
craft with thin plastic held out by legos.

Looking forward to it :) right now I stick to my MTB -
that won't need wings, lift, thrust or anything :)))
Happy building!
