It requires 50% headwind for takeoff but wind does not work in the hangar, it needs to be outside.
Wright Flyer I took off with 32 km/h headwind not catapult. Since 1904 later models used catapult for the same purpose: to be able to take off on short runway. Because Wrights chose windy beach for flight trials, wheels would not work on soft sand surface. I guess they must have also think about surviving a crash on soft sand instead of hard surface.
Catapult assisted launch since 1904 allowed them to take off without waiting for suitable wind speed and direction.
50% wind is enough, I even take off with %40.
sharkfam,
Thanks for suggestion bt SR-71 would take too much time to make.
I may have had the wind blowing the opposite direction. I’ll go retry.
There is control handle near the instrument panel and elevator control stick which can be seen in the picture in description above.
The "runway" rail is only 18 meter. So, it requires headwind to takeoff. But first you need to push it out of the hangar because wind does not affect hangar. Please read the Startup instructions above.
Thanks, I am glad you liked it. Interestingly using 1x1 window components allowed very thin decorative bracing wires.
