Testing Results
-
On Sat 22 March, 2008, we flew the airplane with the assistance of another pilot at the
Seminole RC Club Airfield. He helped us trim the airplane with the added weight
-
Flow Reattachment Demonstrated!
-
Videos of the testing in the lab (before take-off) and those taken from the ground simultaneously with the video captured on-board
will be posted soon. We are trying to acquire sound from the video camera but are experiencing difficulties
Proposed Future Work
-
Demonstrate roll control at small α's using microjets on one entire wing
-
Measure the reduction in minimum (landing) flying speed
