We hope that others find the code useful. There are a lot of goodies in there. A full-fledged flight simulator that could be used to simulate a variety of physical systems. A Kalman-filter-based state estimator. Math libraries. Firmware to run high performance electric motors. We also understand that it's typically very hard to adapt and re-use other people's code, especially when it's no longer actively supported.

Aside from the "code dump" portion, we have published 400 pages of entirely new documentation describing the system, plus about an equal amount of technical document artifacts.

Hopefully someone can use it and realize the kite power dream someday. Right now funding in this space is tough especially, it seems, after Google stopped funding Makani. We used to be able to say "Look, Google is funding this kind of thing" - it lent a certain legitimacy, but now potential funders seem to be nervous about Google dropping the funding.

Totally agree! And for what it's worth, sorry it didn't work out.

My reply above was to the parent who seemed to think it wasn't all that useful. I looked through the code and found a lot of goodies in there. :)

If nothing else, looking at how you've approached problems can help inspire solutions related problems.
