This sounds very interesting

You would need to check out if Helium reacts with the bladder material either short term or over long term and reduces life? I have no ideas, it would be great if it worked, must means cost each kite

just finished eating 2 litres of curried lentil soup. I plan on inflating my kite with fart gas...will let you know how it goes.

Just got to be a little bit careful with lighter than air gasses, small molecules means it leaks out easily. For example a balloon filled with helium deflates a lot quicker than a balloon filled with air... that's why helium balloons are usually silvery instead of rubber.

You might find that your bladder deflates a lot quicker than it usually does.

Now CO2 on the other hand, might be a good idea. You can get CO2 canisters quite cheaply, you might be able to rig something up to inflate your kite with a little canister! Now THAT would be worth seeing

are you frikin serious mate you've filled it with helium - lol - i wish i had money to burn

bondo bin kiten.

I tried filling the bladders with water..... doesn't work!
turns too slow... and it sinks before relaunch..ha ha ha...

Aaah! the sweppervescence!
