I was just thinking it would be fun to see what the FT team could build from one of the shipping boxes of a speed build kit. This may have already been suggested but here's what I was thinking:
Challenge parameters:
Judging parameters:
Just a few ideas that popped into my head:
Challenge parameters:
- Primary structure would be built from the speed build kit box.
- Other build materials would have to be from items commonly found in speed build kits (popsicle stick, music wire, coffee stir sticks, zip ties, BBQ skewers, etc..)
- Packing tape can be used.
- Plastic heat seal bags used to pack the kits can be used as building material.
- Standard props appropriate for whatever motor is selected.
- Usable Electronics:
- No more than 4 motors
- 1-4 esc
- 1 reciever, 3 Channels (Craftydan)
- 1 battery
- No more than 5 servos (9gram)
Judging parameters:
- The creation is NOT required to fly (see ideas below)
- Winner would be the person who's creation is deemed the most "Fun" or has the most "Fun Value".
- Winners will be judged by the rest of the FT team, family, or special guest
Just a few ideas that popped into my head:
- Hovercraft?
- Ground effect vehicle?
- Air boat?
- RC car?
- Gyrocopter?
- Something cool that could be dropped from a FT airframe?
- Tool storage?
- Wind tunnel?
- Vapor like indoor airplane?
- Crazy mad gizmo that just does something silly and looks funny?
