Wright Flyer Project update

Mark Helmick has been working diligently on a test model to glide on the slope. It’s RC and 2 channel with rudder and elevator. He’s learned a lot from previous efforts with test gliders and we hope this one will glide well and have good control.

He did a beautiful job of laser cutting the parts for the various structures and a Bamboo fuselage frame.

It was too windy to fly yesterday and we hope he gets a chance today.

I’ll be back to the Wright Flyer build next week of the kit I’m building so we can test fly that under power indoors in a gym.
