Namiste,
Today I announce the beginning of a project to build and fly a practical minimum flying machine. Consider it first as a sport enthusiast pet project.
It will be based off the same concept as my three segment wings, but with a folding mechanism generally mimicking the function of bird joints.
Only highly athletic persons of good composure would be applicants for flight tests, preferable with sports experience comfortable with aerial acrobatics, and with no inclination to excessive risk.
Controls will be body feedback mimicry, with arms legs and feet providing directions to equivalent machinery. As far as I know, this has never been fully modeled.
It will be a long project, and may require travel.
Asking for willing participants, to work as a private club, in a non open source manner.
At this time do not expect financial reward for your contributions in a timely manner.
ThX,
LuPi
