Project Overview
For the challenge we where given a KidWind Advanced Wind Experiment Kit by our teacher. Our group of 5 started off by designing multiple different versions of blades on Whitebox Learning. In the end we settled with a 400mm blade with a Somers S102 airfoil because of the lift drag ratio.
