TessStoy Posted February 18, 2009 Report Posted February 18, 2009 For science we have to make a mousetrap powered helicopter. The size of the helicopter doesn't matter. Does anyone have any ideas? Quote

alexander Posted February 19, 2009 Report Posted February 19, 2009 now that sounds like a challenge... you would have to generate enormous lift to facilitate this, and it will not at all be stable. thoughts:learn how a wing worksshave everything off a mouse trap, as much weight as you can possibly shave offattach rather big blades to generate a lot of liftspin them up with a mouse trap, but make sure that when the trap is finished, it disengages so the copter will come to a stopuse gearing to your advantage ;) Quote
