    Yes the Cg is at the center of the air craft, but the Center of Lift, Cl, is not, its all the way in the front.
    Im a Msc mechanical engineer with a Bsc in aerospace and my guess of what is happening is: the rear most wings are not generating as much lift as the front ones because as the air passes through each wing set it becomes more turbulent, which causes less lift being generated.
    Another explanation using continuity theorems is: the delta speed between the air and the wings decreases as the air passes through each wing set, in order to keep the Center of lift near the Cg, in equilibrium, the air would need to be increased after each set of wings in order to maintain the same air speed through the whole of the plane.
    Another solution would be to increase each wing set length in order increase surface area and get more energy from the "spent air". In a delta configuration.

    • @TheRattleSnake3145
      @TheRattleSnake3145 Місяць тому +4

      The simple way to look at it is: they are all equal wings spaces equally so they are effectively one square wing. In standard wings, the CG is 1/4 to 1/3 from the leading edge , so the CG should have been 1/4 - 1/3 of the total cord from the leading edge. Just like a normal wing.

    • @SynchronizorVideos
      @SynchronizorVideos Місяць тому +3

      Exactly what I was thinking. By the time the airflow gets to the middle and especially rear sets of wings, it's probably so chopped-up that those wings are producing very little effective lift. It would also help explain why the pitch authority was so garbage.

    Due to the amount of sticks holding up the wind the sticks cause a lot of drag reducing the speed of the aircraft. This is a real factor of old time fighter air craft in ww1 planes, the planes didn’t fly as fast as intended because of the bar holding up the upper wing/wings on the plane.

    Always start too nose heavy. If you don't have elevator authority to get off the ground, you have a safe fail condition.

    Peter, you never fail to deliver at Flite Fest. That was truly epic. I love the way you get all those kids to build these crazy planes with you and then watching them hack them up at the end is so satisfying. Can't wait to see what you bring to Flite Fest 2025.

    10:43. I didn't know the Italians invented VTOL. Amazing

    After seeing something like the Ca.60 fly I'm curious if the Stipa-Caproni or Ca.183 concept could work in a smaller scale

    Lift vs drag. So it depends how much force you want to use to push it through the air. In theory there's no limit on how many wings so long as you also have enough motors!

    I love those early inter-war airplane designs where they're still trying to figure out what works and what doesn't. Stuff was so creative albeit terrible.

    Sam, launching the plane and operating the camera at the same time. Sweet multitasking.

    Hey Peter, here's an idea for a future video; make a simple, backpack/strap-on (minds out of the gutter!) personal autogyro, using a paramotor engine or even possibly an electric setup.
    Build a simple frame, with the smallest blade diameter to safely fly, and a lightweight rudder.
    You could make it RC and test it with a dummy, buster style!😂
    That would be super sweet!!!🤩

    I would like to challenge you to make a 4 rotor plane with tiny drone motors attached to each of the 8 total blades, and that would be its propulsion. Have each of the blade mounts be able to rotate 180 degrees fore and aft and some software for flight controllability.
    Have the aft props be pushers for better capabilities.

    More wings = more lift = more better. The math checks out.

    seems like a really safe design. When it stalls it just plops down peacefully.
