- decided on basic body shape
- did measurements of woods to make scale
- decided how long we wanted wing span based off of how far the wins could go without bending
- sketched a few possible ideas
Building:
- Day one: built basic body and glued wings together
- Day two: glued wings on body
- Day three: rebuilt broken wings
- Day four: rebuilt more durable wings
- Day five: laid on tissue paper
Flight Day:
- terrible flight time
- 2nd distance flight after a throw off
Improvements needed:
- stronger woings because ours broke every day of building
- put on a nose weight after first test flight
You've captured the basic iterative nature of this project with your write up which is great.
