Name: Pathbuzzer Design: Ed ter Laare Constructed by: Martijn Koolloos Date creation: July 2005 Date RIP:29 July 2005 Material: Berch plywood, 8 layers Thickness: 4 mm. Wing chord: 26 - 40 mm. Wingspan: 325 mm. Characteristics: Had lead in leading wing, see back side. Should have been tuned by upbending the leading wing. However.... during a test flight on the 29th of July, 2005, it went straight on, I lost it out of sight, and it dove somewhere into the high grass: never found it again.. |

Name: Parabola Design: Martijn Koolloos Constructed by: Martijn Koolloos Date creation: August 2005 Date RIP:30 September 2005 Material: Berch plywood, 8 layers Thickness: 4 mm. Wing chord: 27 - 50 mm (centre-part). Wingspan: 240 mm. Heigth: 230 mm. Weight: 40 gr Characteristics: Behaved in the unpainted version like a long distance boomerang, i.e. flies straight ahead, climbs and returns along almost the same path. After painting it behaved more like rocket. It went sky-high and after reaching the highest point in one straight line back to earth with high velocity. Funny, but dangerous for people and not healthy for BR itself... |
