Glider Challenge

1. Picture of our glider^^^^^^^^
2. 1) The challenge is to design a model airplane with unlimited amounts of paper and balsa wood. The catch is that it has to be light weight and be albe to withstand the wind.

2) Design PhaseBrainstorm solutions:
-The rules of brainstorming are to be creative as possible and collaborate openly with people.

-Our ideas were taken from Da Vinchi's models of airplanes.


3. ) Specify:-Criteria: Make a model airplane with as little material as possible.
-Constraints: unlimited paper, balsa wood, tape
"+" - desirable outcomes- Make the glider fly

"Delta" - outcomes to change- Cut the glider in certain spots and put more balsa wood on the wings
"?" - questions raised- At what point does the glider spin upside down? How much will we have to depend on the wind? Is there a critical piece of design that we are missing?
"light bulb" - ideas generated- We can make the glider have different spots of change in the amount of paper and we can also cut the balsa wood into smaller pieces.


4. Develop Solutions:
-Sketch (with labels)
-Model in CAD

Purple- the front

Green- the middle

Pink- the tail of the glider
