Hi All,

I thought this tip might be useful to those of you who like to go kiting off the beaten track and find yourself without any phone signal.

Long story short, I was desperately trying to get an important SMS sent out while spending the day kiting in a remote area.

I then had the idea of attaching the phone to the central strut of the kite and then fly the kite with the phone up there. To my amazement this worked and I was able to send out those messages (SMS's that can't be sent due to no signal automatically get sent as soon as a signal is present).

If you had more than 1 kite bar you could eventually double the line lengths to get that phone up even higher

You could use your Bluetooth headset if it wasn't flat and you could remember how to pair it. Maybe say
"help I'm stuck in the out back with no phone". Which Siri would probably translate to something like
"hello I'm sticking it in to the back of a pony"
