Magi Craft Meister

On April 9th, Jen popped out of the lab to make a test flight for 'Taube Modified 2', where breakfast was also there.

"Father, the test pilot must come to me."

Reiko insists.

"Okay, please"

"Yes!"

And Jen called Hope,

"Hope will steer the 'taube modification'. I'll get in, too."

"Okay."

I'm going to observe some subtle behavior while chasing Taube 2 in Taube 2.

It is a method that can be done because it is a 'wind plane (blow plane)' with low flight speed.

Jen's ride "Taube Modification" waits in the air first.

"Okay, I'll go."

And Reiko contacted me with a word on the Magic Vegetable Communicator (Manacam).

"All right, go!

"Taube Modification 2" rose.

"Stability, No Problem"

"Sounds like it."

As a result of observations from above, there is no behavior that is likely to be particularly problematic, and 'Taube Modification 2' shows a steady take-off.

"There's no instability at takeoff."

Both Taube and Taube modification 2 are circular wings, but their curvature is different.

Taube and Taube modifications that are convex on top, but Taube modification 2 is almost planar. As a result, there is a lot of L.A. in the breeze to rise.

For that matter, Jen had raised the output of the "Blower Flotation Engine (Blow Engine)" for flotation.

"We're moving on to flight."

"All right, go!

"Taube Modification 2" takes an altitude of about 50 meters, then carries out a horizontal flight.

"10 percent propulsion engine output first"

"Yeah, that sounds good"

Here the effect of the circular wing being planar appears.

The circular wing, which is the main wing, has the greatest air resistance in wind floaters and wind planes.

We made it almost flat, so the speed improved.

The propulsion engine is the same, but the speed was up by more than 40%.

"I'll try a change of direction"

Then Reiko hangs on a test of exertion.

"Oh, you're pretty small."

The effect of moving half of the torso, which combines vertical stabilizing plates, and combining directional rudder, emerged.

but.

Trying to figure out how small I could turn, 'Taube Modification 2' disturbed Gakun and his posture.

'I'm sorry, Father. stalled.'

"Sounds like it. Um, I tipped the circular wing for the turn, and it's stalled, you know."

Jen felt a little sorry that the emphasis on athleticism had resulted in a considerable sacrifice of stability.

Then when you check the exercise performance of one,

"All right, land me once."

Jen made the test flight that far.

In the square in front of the Institute, "Taube Modified" and "Taube Modified 2" landed.

"Hmm, I guess this is the limit with this shape..."

More peaky, Jen reflected, thinking that he had changed his shape, but seemed to have become a difficult fuselage to handle.

"Though I guess this is an ant"

It didn't seem like the performance I was aiming for, and Jen is a difficult face.

Because it didn't turn out the way I thought.

"Father, did you not mind?

Reiko is also a little grumpy.

"No, it's not Reiko's fault. It's a design issue."

So Jen comforted such a courtesy.

"Good for the competition, but a little unsuitable for everyday use"

Jen gave a self-assessment that this was the only way to take it to Avalon.

"Hmmm, then we'll try another idea..."

Jen was warming up the idea of a "wind plane (blow plane)" that wasn't a "modification".

It's a "wind plane (blow plane)" with four circular wings, front, rear, left and right.

The front and rear circular wings are small and the left and right circular wings are large.

"Pegasus 1", previously made by Jen, had a "Magic Spray Propulsion Engine (Magijet Engine)" for surfacing on both ends of the main wing, but this also holds back and forth.

It resembles what is called a 'drone' in modern Japan, but is 45 degrees different with respect to the direction of travel.

It was aimed at changing the angle up and down with the front and rear circular wings and the lateral angle to swirl with the left and right circular wings.

A shorter torso and cockpit shall be provided in the central part connecting the left and right circular wings.

The area of circular wings is enough to be equivalent to the previous Wind Planes (Blow Planes) and Wind Floaters (Blow Floaters) when four are added together.

So the proprietary area of the fuselage becomes wider.

There's still time for lunch, so Jen decided to try and make a prototype out of that line.

"Reiko, help me"

"Yes, Father."

Jen gave Reiko an assistant and also called "Craftsman (Smith)," so Jen's idea took shape in about an hour.

This time the circular wing is curved to convex on top.

Jen, who completed a single check,

"We still have about half an hour for lunch, so let's test it out a lot"

I said. I still want to try what I made soon.

"Then I will"

"Yeah, please."

Reiko ran again, so Jen decides to leave it to him.

"When swiveling, change the output of the left and right" Blow and float engines ". Rise and fall back and forth."

"Yes, I'm fine"

As far as maneuvering and control are concerned, it is still unknown, so Reiko's speed of reaction was relied upon. Around here, anxiety lingers in Hope.

"Be careful."

"Yes, Father."

It is an unprecedented new attitude control method, so we have to be cautious. Jen called 50 'Craftsmen (Smith)' and decided to put up a shock-absorbing junction in case of the crash.

Same thing I put up during the air race.

"All right, go!

"Reiko, I'm coming!

The prototype's "Blower Flotation Engine (Blow Engine)" roared, and the fuselage slowly began to rise….
