The Wright Brothers Plane
We had decide to change one out of 3 plane into a plane similar to Wright brothers.
the reason why we decide to change is
-The original plane weight is too heavy cause the plane cant perform it maxium range
-The body is too long causing it to be heavy
-CG is out when the weight placed on the plane is remove
We had change
-The vertical and horizontal stabilizer as front
-Move the wing to the back as the back
-Remove the weight and length of the glider
-It track is better than before
