Hi
Title says what I am trying to do. I have an R/C Aircraft that was designed for a .40 glow engine and I want to convert it to electric and power it from a battery, and then solar.
I am having issues of where to go next with my project, I have done some calculations, but stuck more on...
Hi
Pretty simple, just what the title says, anyone know of some good drawing software for Mechanical Engineering?
What I mean by drawing software is software that can make diagrams such as MOHr Strain Diags, Beam Diags, and Freebody drawings, etc.?
Thanks
How about websites such as http://wright.nasa.gov/airplane/shortw.html, or http://www.allstar.fiu.edu/aero/#Principles
I am going through these sites now to increase my knowledge of aerospace as i am a mech eng student.
Think you've answered your own question with:
Operative word been "HELP" and not doing it for you.
Sure you'll get lots of help, once you have a crack at it yourself and post your attempts.
Hi
I want to model a race track in CFD. This is so I can figure out the best racing line.
Is it as simple as finding where the fluid flows fastest, and thus showing the best racing line?
I know its a little over the top, but its for a go cart track I race on, and I want to know how to...
Hi
I am looking into the design of gliders with good L/D / Glide Ratio.
It seems hard to find what is the most efficient full size glider, and the same goes to a scale r/c type one too.
So any ideas?
If i was to start from scratch, what should i be looking at to get the best l/d...
Hi
I can't help much here, but i hope some-one here can fill the blanks in as i can't find the URL or even name of the scheme.
MIT and a few other universities, thing all usa ones, do a competition where they design, build and fly a RC aircraft.
There was a website that had all the...
Well with regards to above...
These days on the CPL route you will do Multi Engine Rating, JOC (Jet Orientation) and MCC (Multi Crew). The MCC comes in a few types, but most do the Turbo Prop one.
To fly most jet types you need a type rating, ie, 737-NG, or B757/767 etc, these are courses...
There are little differences, but you need to look at FAA in the USA or JAA in most other parts of the world.
There is a CPL (Commercial Pilots Licence) and ATPL (Airline Transport Pilots Licence).
To get the CPL, which is what you get before ATPL you need.
- PPL (45hrs + 6 exams + C2...
Thanks for all the info.
I went for the FX-991, it was reduced to a couple of pound more than the fx-85 which i have used for years, so i know how to use it as its pretty simple.
Looking at some TI calcs for use in class room, 84 and 89 but not really sure as i can use Microsoft Math Calc...
Hi
Little off topic i guess, but i am in need of a new calculator to match the level i am studying at.
Soon to be 3rd year mech eng student.
I have been looking at graphical calculators and the likes.
Seems to be
- TI
- Casio
- HP
- Sharp
and they offer several models and i...
Hi
Sorry for such a random and Off-topic post.
I am doing an aerospace project, and i am looking for a selection of witty replys to simple science statements, just to add a little humour/fun to an otherwise boring presentation.
Statements like: what goes up, must come down... Not if it...
