The demo video shows the kite autonomously landing to a rig next to the ground station. It uses the engine/turbine propellers to launch and land using electrical power.
Their material says that they launch at wind speeds of 3.5 m/s, which is a light summer day breeze that is hardly noticeable.
It is a common misconception that kites need high winds to fly, the optimal wind speed for most kites is 3-6 m/s.
