Professional Kite Pull Force Calculator
Download on Google PlayKite Force Pro calculates the exact pull force your kite will generate under current weather conditions using real aerodynamic principles. Essential for safety planning, line selection, and understanding your kite's performance limits whether you're flying sport kites, single-line kites, or kite aerial photography rigs.
Unlike simple estimators, Kite Force Pro uses the fundamental aerodynamic lift equation:
F = CL × A × ρ × 0.5 × V²
Air density is calculated from real-time temperature and pressure for maximum accuracy. Different kite shapes have different lift coefficients—Delta kites (1.2), Parafoils (1.5), Box kites (0.9), etc.
Real-time pull force in Newtons, Pounds, and Kilograms. Automatic line strength recommendations with 3x safety factor. Wind analysis warns you when conditions are marginal for your kite size.
Save unlimited kite configurations with photos. Support for Delta, Box, Parafoil, Diamond, Sled, and Rokkaku kites. Track manufacturer, product line, wind rating, cost, and last flown dates.
Auto-fetch current conditions via GPS. Wind speed, direction, temperature, and pressure updated automatically. Interactive Windy.com wind map shows conditions across your area.
Plan your flying sessions ahead of time with detailed weather forecasts. See high/low temperatures and maximum wind speeds for the next 5 days.
Add windsocks, flags, and banners to your force calculations. Choose Small/Medium/Large sizes for accurate additional pull estimation on your line.
Switch units instantly between mph ↔ m/s, °F ↔ °C, inHg ↔ hPa. All calculations and displays update in real-time. Your preferences are saved automatically.
Export/import your entire kite collection in ZIP format with photos preserved. Share individual kite configurations. Auto-backup reminders every 5 app launches.
All calculations run locally on your device. No internet required once weather is fetched. Your kite data stays private on your device.
Plan competition sessions with confidence. Choose the right line strength for varying wind conditions. The forecast feature helps you prepare practice sessions ahead of time.
Fly large show kites safely. Know exactly what forces you're dealing with. Essential for managing multiple-line setups and line laundry trains.
Critical safety tool for KAP rigs. Know exact pull forces before attaching expensive camera equipment. The line laundry calculator accounts for your camera suspension system.
Provide safety recommendations to hundreds of participants based on current conditions. Plan event days with accurate weather forecasts.
Track your entire collection with photos and detailed specs. Know which kites to fly in today's conditions. Monitor your total investment and last flown dates.
