    Having the large wheels on the launcher gave more heigth from which to launch from. That with the aid of a catapult and a properly designed wing resulted in a spectacular flight.

      What you are missing is that the large wheel had a smaller shaft which pulled the rope that launched it. The catapult was powered by the large wheels going forward.

      @@CalebSalstrom Hi Caleb! First of all, I was simply sharing an honest thought. It does seem like common sense to apply a launching mechanism in this event. (Some might even call the act of problem solving and discussing the concepts therein "fun.")
      Let's cut to the part that has offended you. I truly believe that the general population has less common sense than generations past.
      You're right. Common sense is relative- and currently, it is contextually relative to the undeniable and observable fact that as technology evolves, our dependent, "enlightened" species is devolving as a whole. And edgy? Edgy? That made me chuckle.
      There's nothing edgy about anything I said, Caleb. The writing's been on the wall for decades. Some of us even find it "fun" to ponder and discuss.
      I'll leave you with this, Mr. Relativity. Are "fun things" not relative as well?
      Have a wonderful day!

      @@Lost_n_Found_1
      I never said I was offended. Only that you are taking something that is fun, and making it into a discussion on society, hence the 'edginess'; It's very assumptive of you to claim that others enjoy discussing those concepts and problem solving as if I myself do not, because I do, in the right context. Unfortunately I saw right through your first comment and knew it would lead to exactly what you just said, which is the same old cliche of 'everyone else is stupid except me' thinly veiled behind the 'common sense is no longer common' rhetoric which immediately exposes your lack of experience engaging and listening to the people around us, and instead your opinions are formed from the internet and whatever small social bubble you inhabit for the majority of your time which you interpret as absolute.
      I don't find folks like you offensive, I find you exhausting.

    As a pilot that last one was impressive, they spent a lot of time on that design but I wonder if doing away with ailerons entirely might've helped them out a bit. Very cool rod control set up to the control surfaces but it put out a lot more drag than ideal. Especially considering how much money went into it though it ought to fly well! Love the lifting body concept and the washout to the wingtip. They spent a fortune on it.

    9:46 As much as it's fun to have the ridiculous ones, it's also fun to see people do a great job and have a good feat of an engineering! It's just as exciting for me when it's mixed in with all the class clowns!

    Knowing where to sit on a contraption and flying that far calls for some knowledge in weight and balance.
