Tensioned Fabric Wings

Ordered some lightweight ripstop fabric for a project my daughter is doing, and I started to do a little math. I'm fairly certain I can build a flying wing in the same weight class as dollar store foam, but as crash resistant as a kite. Anyone ever try something like this?

Powered kites have been done successfully, though no specific examples come to mind. I'd love to see what you come up with!
