Learn from the MIT Design/Build/Fly (DBF) team about basic aerodynamics, weight and balance, and modeling techniques. Then apply them in a competition to design and build the best balsa wood glider. May the best glider win! (MIT DBF competes in the international AIAA/Cessna/Raytheon DBF Competition, using state-of-the-art techniques to design and build high-performance remote-controlled aircraft.)
[This activity is part of the Hands-On Aerospace series sponsored by Aero/Astro running Jan 11-15. Participants welcome at individual sessions; priority may be given to registered class members and undergraduates. See the Hands-On Aerospace listing for full schedule.]
