Re: What it's like. the Kite's View
The system of suspending a camera from a kite is refered to as KAP or Kite Ariel Photography. You can find websites that sell ready made systems and also parts to build your own and lots of information by doing a search for KAP on the internet. The AKA has an active group of world travelers who display unique views of landmarks and general photos in a competition each year at the National Convention.
You can also check the KAP tab under Kite Gendre at the top of the page for more information.

I see what you mean about shaky! Surely a case where KAP is better than KAV. I have seen lots of stunning kite aerial photographs, but have yet to see a kite aerial video where the movement adds anything (other than the unintended nausea from movement of the camera.) Video is designed to show motion, and from the air the only motion usually visible is that of cars along the highway. Nevertheless, an interesting experiment!
