'''Kite''' is a Lightweight flipperbot created by KodeBreaker of [[Team Zlayerz]]. He is similar to The Matador, but sports a kite-like shape, which is partially the reason for his name. Driven by 24v drill motors and 2 wheels near the front (not as much as The Matador, though. S5-Matador could hardly turn about), he is as manoeuvrable as it gets. The powerful flipping arm can flip around a tonne on the tip. The 6063 aluminium alloy exoskeleton and 2mm Grade 5 titanium armour provide some protection against heavy-duty weaponry.

Kite is a Lightweight flipperbot created by KodeBreaker of Team Covenant. He is somewhat similar to The Matador, but sports a kite-like shape, which is partially the reason for his name. Driven by 24v drill motors and 2 wheels near the front (not as much as The Matador, though. S5-Matador could hardly turn about), he is as manoeuvrable as it gets. The powerful flipping arm can flip around a tonne on the tip. The 6063 aluminium alloy exoskeleton and 2mm Grade 5 titanium armour provide some protection against heavy-duty weaponry.

His first version looked similar, but was longer and thinner in shape, thus making it harder to turn, and his flipping arm's plate was ineffective.
