Balsa Aircraft Challenge

This activity required students to implement their knowledge to construct a efficient glider. While participating in this activity I worked with Chris Cervantes, and Patrick Burke. I helped mainly in the construct of the structure of the wings while also applying tissue paper to create an more aerodynamic frame. Even so I strongly believe that taking into consideration the results of the flight that very few if any challenges have been completed. 

This is a picture of the final production.


Our group did not have a surplus amass of existence to fine tune our craft. Speaking of which we completed the frail thing during the competition day. As a direct result of lack of motivation and concentration from team members. Our craft is as a Japanese Kamikaze during World War II were. It flew vertically with a negative slope. :(

Our group did brainstorm the design of the craft's exterior while taking consideration of the default internal structure. However the existence was not of surplus due to the constant disembodiment of individual portions of the craft. None the less we did rule out many ideals and accepted few. As a result our group did not exactly have the existence to test out our craft and fine tune the wings or the supporters for that matter.
