QUEST & Dare Devil Dillo

Beginning -- Maybe we need a model?

Images start at the bottom and build upwards. Some images link to a larger picture.

 

13 - Here goes our very sophisticated model flight test.

Pretty nasty, but it flew!

14 - Why is everyone so surprised? 15 - It is not being held up by a string!

16 - Same frame from #15 but with proper fabric and sewing techniques.

This is about 1/4 scale.

9 - "Don't you guys think this is a little small to carry a person?" 10 - "...and then we pull on this..." 11 - It looks a little weak to fly. 12 - A metal and fabric model gets closer to our final goal. The green fabric was stapled and taped on before we had a sewing machine on site.

 

5 - "I thought you knew what we were told to cut?"

6 - "Is this how the Wright brothers started?"

7 - This is precise work... look at that concentration!

8 - Engineers at play.
     

1 - Our inspiration. 2 - Our entry submission. 3 - A paper model of our Dare Devil Dillo. Looks a little like road kill, but that might help.

4 - With a photo of a real dillo, the plan takes shape.

Everyone is full of confidence!
