What weather can I fly a kite?

People in China usually fly kites in spring and autumn, which are neither too hot nor too cold. Especially in spring, just after the severe winter, spring returns to the earth, and the weather gets warmer. Everyone comes to the open suburbs, puts kites high and feels very comfortable outside. At this time, the wind is warm and even, just suitable for flying kites.

You can fly kites all year round, but there are also the best seasons. For example, Weifang International Kite Fair is scheduled for April 20th, because the local climate is pleasant and the wind is suitable.

It is more appropriate to enlarge the kite when the wind is strong, and it is more appropriate to fly a small kite when the wind is weak. Generally speaking, the higher the ground, the stronger the wind. If the wind is 0.5 about 2 meters from the ground and the kite can't fly, you can drag the kite against the wind for a while. When the kite flies to a certain height and the wind is right, you don't have to run, so the kite won't fall.

The flying direction of kites in the air is closely related to the wind and direction. If the wind speed and direction are fixed, the kite will be stable in the air; When the wind speed and direction change, the flying direction of kites in the air also changes. The changing wind direction and wind speed can make the dragon kite shake its head and tail, meander and hover, and make the eagle kite expect to pitch and soar up and down like a living eagle.

A delta-wing kite (also known as a delta-wing kite) with two-line control flight has skeletons on both sides and no skeleton on the other side. The wind is discharged from the side without skeleton, which produces reaction force and pushes the delta wing kite to fly in the sky. Change the exhaust direction of a delta wing kite, and its flight direction will change. When the wind speed is fast, the flying speed of delta wing kite is fast; When the wind speed is slow, the flying speed of delta wing kites will also slow down.

Excellent delta-wing kite fliers can use the power of flying kites to make delta-wing kites make many beautiful flying movements in the air. Meteorological factors such as air pressure and humidity also have great influence on flying kites. When the high pressure is controlled, the kite is not easy to take off because of the popularity of downward flow.

When the air humidity is high, a lot of water vapor will attach to the kite, which will increase the weight of the kite and make its mask soft and difficult to fly. In addition, after the kite is soaked by water vapor, the strength will increase, the sticky place will be degummed, and the wings (pull tabs) will be deformed due to moisture, which will affect the flying effect of the kite.

It can be seen that flying kites is closely related to wind conditions and temperature and humidity conditions, so people should not fly kites in windy and cold winter and hot and humid summer. Spring and autumn are the golden seasons for flying kites because of their stable airflow and moderate humidity.
