Glider Project
From the Glider project i've learned that there are four different types of Glider. The 1900, 1901, 1902, and 1903. The one we had to do a porject on the 1903 or 1902. The the things that i've learned from those two is that the 1902 model was the world's first controllable aurcraft. Also it had large narrower wings and eliptcial elevator. From the 1903 model i've learned that it was the first heave air powered Glider. Also it made a substanced controlled flight with a pliot aboard. It was has 3 axis control system, which featured wingfor lateral balance a movable rubber elevtor. The wings were rigged with a slight droop to reduce effect of crosswinds. Also the right wing was four inches long then the left for the engine being heave. I found this project to be very instersting and i learned so much about a Glider that i didnt even know from the beginning.
