Another Random Invention: Kite-Assist Blimp
I like kites. But sometimes the it’s not windy enough to fly a kite — so for the really desperate, how about a blimp or mini-helicopter to assist the kite to get up in the air. The kite would be tethered to both the operator as well as an assistive blimp/copter that would help raise the kite’s altitude. This could also be kind of an interesting tool for kite-surfing or those kite-powered boats… probably not that practical, though.
