3. What’s the problem?? We are trying to develop a glider that will not only glide for distance but also be as accurate as possible.

4. INITIAL DESIGN  The first design was a glider with a wide wing span.

5. PROSPROS -The glider has good speed-Wings tend to move once it lands -The glide can stay up for a long distance -Glider has good accuracy -Very light

6. CHANGES TO DESIGN… Our first design was the glider with the wide wing span. Then we made the back up glider. After we built the main glider, we tested it. The wide wing span could fly for distance but not very accurate. It turned out that the backup was better in gliding, accuracy, and it went the farthest out of the two. While we were test flying the glider we noticed the it was not going as far as it was the previous Wednesday. After changes we moved the wings further back.

7. PLANPLAN PLAN – Selig and I decided on the wide wing design for distance.  DO – After two designs we decide on swept back wings for stability for distance and accuracy  CHECK – Threw the glider numerous times to determine which was the best design. Swept back was the best or both accuracy and distance.  ACT – swept back design was the best of the two.

8. KEY FEATURES  The glider has the Air Force signal on each wing.  Looks like an Air Force fighter jet.  The tip of the glider is painted a lighter shade then the rest of the glider.  Long swept back design for aero dynamics.  Wide tail wing for stability.
