HARDWARE 3.1 INTRODUCTION Quadcopter is a flying vehicle with six degrees of freedom which uses four rotors to push air downwards and to create a thrust force for keeping the quadcopter on the air. The pilot or flight control unit will control the orientation and tile of the multicopter by reading the data from the sensors. Gyro‚ accelerometer‚ magnetometer or GPS can be used to sense the tile‚ orientation and position of the vehicle. It can be used in many applications merely by changing the sensors

acting upon the wings of an airplane that allow it to counteract gravity. Contrary to popular belief‚ the Bernoulli principle is not responsible for most of the lift generated by an airplanes wings. Rather‚ the lift is created by air being deflected off the wings and transferring an upward force to those wings. The most important factor in determining the lift generated by an airplane is the angle of attack. The angle of attack is the degree measure from the horizontal that a wing is elevated or

Fair Science Testing With Paper Airplanes 1. Find an airplane template to follow. Design your airplane. Test it with many flights. Practise how to hold and throw it to produce the most consistent straight flight. 2. Decide what aspect of your paper airplane you would like to investigate to see whether it will have an effect on its flight distance. You will need to change it a minimum of three times and will therefore need to build three airplanes. 3. Choose from the following: Size of paper plane

have been trying to make different machines fly. In 1903‚ Wright brothers had built a new type of flying machine called the airplane which they launched in Kitty Hawk‚ North Carolina. Although they were not the first to fly‚ the airplane was a new design that would forever change history. It was an innovation in technology that had never been seen before. The airplane‚ one of the fastest methods of transportation‚ has changed the way we travel‚ has changed fighting in wars‚ and has changed the way

Segment One The Luftwaffe was created in 1935 at Noervnich Airbase‚ located in central Germany‚ the heart of international business and home to the Jagbombgeschwader 31 air squardon. They were forcefully disbanded in 1946 when Allied soldiers took control of Germany. Even though their reign was only a mere 11 years‚ it became the most technologically advanced air force during this time period. It became the most feared asset of the German army‚ utilizing the military tactic called Blitzkrieg

During the early stages of the First World War‚ technology was progressing and it particularly obvious in aircraft. New forms of aviation were introduced such as zeppelins and aeroplanes. As the war came to an end‚ airships were replaced with the extensive use of zeppelins. The use of aeroplanes and zeppelins was a potent part in the attack and defence of the British main lands. Source A was produced as a poster in 1915 which was one year into the First World War. As a result‚ the source does not
