Dihedral Magnus Effect Gliders: Make and Fly

[@billkuhl442]

This looks even simpler to make than the other designs without dihedral. I will have to try this again, like you said once you get it figured then it is pretty easy.

Wow! A new tumblewing design! Congratulations, Slater.

+paperairplanesurfer Thanks, Phil.

I love your videos mr Harrison this is Jon miller

[@sciencetoymaker]

+Jonny Miller It was great to see you at the high school, Jon!

[@davidschmidt6013]

Sciencetoymaker, First I found Bruce Yeany and now you....there must be something in the Pennsylvania water!...lol...as a fellow Keystone State-er, I'm proud to see the vids you guys put up. Great stuff! I'll use this in my classes.

[@sciencetoymaker]

Thanks, David. I've seen Bruce's videos but I didn't know he lived in Pennsylvania. I'll contact him and see if I can visit, maybe at his school.

[@davidschmidt6013]

ScienceToyMaker, I could be wrong, but on one of his vids, he had some newspaper laid out on a table. I could see a large ad (I think for a car dealership) and it had a 717- area-code. So that's somewhere in the Lebanon area, I think. Anyway, thanks for the reply and the best of Holidays to you and yours. I'll be back in school after the third, so I'll be back in touch! David S.

[@sciencetoymaker]

Hey David, quick followup: I did indeed contact Bruce and visited his school all day the Friday before Memorial Day, flying the gliders with all of his students. Bruce is a truly dedicated, innovative and all around great teacher. His classroom and lab are like magic castles. I interviewed him and will upload the video in late August or early September. I think that I still wouldn't know that he is so close if you had not told me. THANK YOU!

[@WildparkWerkstatt]

Another excellent development!

I made one of these 60 inches long once..... when the wing on my RC airplane came off! It fluttered away just like these, but being it was about 600 ft up, I never found the wing.

[@clseairsppt]

hey williamsport and lycoming went to pct. cool videos. plan to share with my daughters.

[@2fbDJLL]

Great video!

[@Fridaynightmixtape]

I've learned something today. Thank you.

Does this work with magazine paper

[@sciencetoymaker]

Magazine paper is thin, but the uneven surface of cellulose fibers is often filled with colloidal clay--which gives magazines their characteristic gloss but also makes the paper heavier. I would expect newspaper to be better, but I could be wrong. Try it.

[@AngelSanchez-mm6li]

Thank you we are making this in aviation and areospace and just wondered if this could work

[@MichaelEdlin542]

I just fucking love physics! These are crazy!

[@emilybrush5672]

It works sooooo well!!!

[@Berkana]

WTF is a phone book? (I'm joking, of course. Do they even make those anymore?)

[@antonnym214]

For those of us without a ruler handy, a US dollar bill is very close to 6 inches long.

[@aedenbrookshire5182]

Awsome!!!

[@trulyinfamous]

I already found those little pieces of paper out on my own

[@electromaniac03]

wow you uploaded a long time ago, ps FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MrEmrys24]

I need to make this now, gotta go buy my pizza.

[@fryncyaryorvjink2140]
