I have no idea what I just looked at. I'm going to assume that the same propellers that took it up in the air become generators once you reach elevation?
The wings generate the forward thrust, just like the blade tips of a conventional wind turbine generate forward thrust to rotated the rotor. More information on how it works is here www.kitekraft.de/airborne-wind-energy and here www.kitekraft.de/technology.

How does it work with rain or a severe weather condition?
If too severe, simply land (hide from the storm), otherwise simply continue to fly and generate power (a normal aircraft has also no problem in rain, e.g.).
Bien, estoy trabajando con el traductor de Google aquí, así que tengan paciencia conmigo. El sistema que ve en el video es nuestro demostrador que puede producir hasta 15kW. Nuestro primer producto tendrá una potencia nominal de 100kW con solo 4 veces la envergadura. Pero no se detiene ahí: en los próximos años queremos escalar hasta el rango de megavatios. Velocidad mínima del viento para permanecer en el aire: 0 metros por segundo. Porque podemos volar con la ayuda de nuestras máquinas de a bordo. Sin embargo, eso consume energía y solo se haría por períodos cortos de tiempo. Si el viento baja por más tiempo, aterrizaríamos y luego volveríamos a volar una vez que las condiciones sean adecuadas. La producción de energía comienza alrededor de 4-5 metros por segundo. ¡Atentamente!
By flying in figure eights (one could also do circles, but this has a few other advantages) the apparent wind speed at the kite is increased wich is benficial if you want to increase the power output. This has to do with how electrical machines produce power. The output scales with toque times rpm. But because torque scales with weight, and you really wnat to be lightweight, you do not go with high torques, but with high rpm. Makes sense?
:D No, this is no air-taxi. But it could charge your Tesla. It's a system used to generate clean and affordable wind power! Find out more here: www.kitekraft.de

Exactly. More information on how it works is here www.kitekraft.de/airborne-wind-energy and here www.kitekraft.de/technology
Was wondering why it was Hazy in the surround foreground. Angle straight up caught a very nice chem trail plane👌
Very innovative! Take it to the next level!
Thanks! We'll do.
How this can generate a net electricity gain considering the thrust required to maintain itself in the air?

The article i saw is that the system is drawn in to the tether point to prevent damage from high winds.
If too severe, simply land (hide from the storm), otherwise simply continue to fly and generate power (a normal aircraft has also no problem in rain, e.g.).
Maravilha 😊
This is just a tethered VTOL. The concept is a good one so why not build the real thing even if it only generates 1 watt as POC?
¿Cuánta energía produce? ¿Velocidad mínima del viento para mantenerse en vuelo sin consumo? ¿Que pasa si cesa el viento? Saludos

Maravilha show de bola 👍✌🏽
Parece conveniente, pero, voy a llevar mi criadero de palomas a otro lugar. . .🤔🤔🤔
Nice, please make it happen🙏
Why did Makani fail and how will Kitekraft overcome that?

@@Kitekraft Thanks, I wish your team great success in your mission!
Why not just use a balloon to keep altitude?

Can it take me to work?!!

How does this not violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics?
It does not. Some research with all the physics background can be found e.g. here: mediatum.ub.tum.de/?id=1484087
Nicht so tief Rüdiger!
Huh?
