Wing It: Everything Can Fly Once - Spring 2013

16 April, 2013

This week was a continuation of building the glider.

I've finished sanding down the wings so that the look the same-ish and now I've started sanding down the base of the glider so that it can produce the appropriate angle.

 

I don't what else to add at the moment as I don't want to spend the whole blog post explaining the details of how I sanded the wings and base down as that isn't particularly interesting.

This was really demanding for me to do and is really boring for you to read. The main point of this week was to find the specifications of my plane dimensions as well as figuring out the angle at which the angles were going to be at.

 

First I figured out the wing span of my plane which is going to around 32" and have a 15 degree slant of the wings and the base has a 11 degree slant.

 

Thats all I did.

Wing It: Everything Can Fly Once - Spring 2013

19 March 2013

This week was a combination of hangman, review on the previous weeks, and deciding on what we are going to do for our final presetation project.

I don't think that the beginning is important aside for learning what a yggdrasill is.

 

The main point of this week was to decide on what our project is going to be, what I've decided at the moment to do is make a glider with a rocket attached to the back.

(I'll write the rest later)
