AIR EDUCATION- Modular Flight Education System

thingiverse

This package is a cutting-edge educational project I have created for my product design A level course. I have been captivated by Thingiverse and its boundless creativity since discovering it about a year ago. It served as the inspiration behind this project, and I hope everyone can derive enjoyment from this concept while helping to further develop it. The project is built from scratch around modularity. The three main parts that can be modified are: -The Fuselage -The Wings -The Tail This concept allows for an almost limitless number of possibilities regarding flight profiles and dynamics, creating a system to educate about all manner of different principles. The package also allows for the use of CO2 canisters for a more powerful and exciting launch, though the project can be entirely functional without these. A trigger mechanism is included; however, some items cannot be printed and need to be purchased. These include: -A 2mm carbon fiber rod (To connect the tail and the fuselage) -A metal scribe -An 11mm diameter spring -Superglue Assembly of the product is straightforward, and side-specific assembly interfaces should prevent incorrect assembly of crucial parts. I hope you enjoy the project and I'm looking forward to seeing how it evolves with the contribution of the wonderfully creative Thingiverse community! If you have any questions about the project, its assembly or want to contact me about further modifications, I'd be delighted to hear from you! Will PS REMIXES WANTED FOR MY FOLDER NOW! Hi guys, for my portfolio, it would be amazing to prove the spirit of thingiverse and open source as a concept by displaying some of your remixes in my folder. My deadline is 9th of May, and any remixes would be really appreciated. The changes do not have to be structural - aesthetic changes would be brilliant to see. I'm planning to continue developing this project after I've finished my A Level course, so any support would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all!
