Glider Plane Project (x15 projects)

Students will apply principles of aerodynamics and engineering design to build, modify, and test a functioning glider plane using a templated design.✈️ Tasked with supporting the launch of STIIX-Ville’s new airport, 'STX', students will explore how forces like lift, drag, and weight impact flight. Through creative enhancements and iterative testing, they will evaluate how their design modifications affect flight distance, stability, and control.↗️ Be sure to check out the STIIX-Ville app as well, which serves as a very powerful, yet optional, extension to this project!🤳 Students Served: 15-45 students Kit Size: 15"x6"x11.5" Kit Weight: 2.6 lbs
