Hi.
Now (Finally, for some of the people here.)
I have realized i am on the wrong approach of CTOL
Jedi has posted this to make me realize:
That i did: start a JTOL thread
Good news: Span can now be widened!
Bad news: Another set of constraints (namely):
and my google searches weren't turning up ANYTHING about JTOL planes (I repeat, PLANES)
can anyone help?

I have realized i am on the wrong approach of CTOL
Jedi has posted this to make me realize:
You should see by now that conventional thinking, doing only more of or slightly different than what has been already done, will not accomplish what you wish to do. You will need to investigate applying new or different concepts and do some experimenting. Something akin to Aircars ATOL. I suggest you look into a jump, zero or short length, takeoff to allow flight over the many obsticles with a higher wingspan than you have been constrained with.
Would you like to start a jump takeoff thread?
That i did: start a JTOL thread
Good news: Span can now be widened!
Bad news: Another set of constraints (namely):
:
1. the problem of "Jumping" more than 2 storeys high in zero length
2. folding into the space of a usual parking space (no need for high wing designs of 1.5m high wing)
3. i also have to land in just as short a distance
4. i still have span constraints (4m + [length of parking space x 2])
5. power constraints (how would i do it on one grass cutter or moped engine?)
6. cost constraints (can it fly on scavenged steel parts MIG welded together?)
and my google searches weren't turning up ANYTHING about JTOL planes (I repeat, PLANES)
can anyone help?
