The competion
The competion we last weekend(27th to 29th of August) and we had a great time.
 
It start on friday, with the apresentations. We did very well, with a nice 7th overall position(project+apresentation)
 

The other two days was for flight competation. We did 3 flys, one on saturday and two on sunday. We lift the follow loads:

1st fly - 3,5kg - not a valid fly

2nd fly - 5kg - valid fly and we "fly" to the third position in overall

3rd fly - 6kg - the only valid fly in the series and we mantiened the third position
 

We finished the competion in 3rd position and in 1st national rank. We are very glad for this result and it is amazing since no one of us have a basic traning in aeronatics branch.

 
We want to thank to IPL for their financial support, DEM-ESTG for material support and "loan" the instalations and DEE-ESTG for electronic mateiral support. We, also, want to thank to every friend who help us. Thank you all

This wing is made by carbon fiber outside and Polystyrene foam inside.
The airfoil was cut with a hot hire.
