GRE66 Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 OK Clever clogs try this.If no one gets the answer do i get the kit?Riddle,If a plane is sitting on a conveyor belt, and the belt will always move in the opposite direction of the plane, at the same speed, if the pilot throttles forward, does the plane have the ability to take off?Now, before you answer, consider a couple of things first:A plane is not a car.A plane requires forward movement in order to generate lift. With that said, do not make any assumptions about the plane's forward movement (or lack of movement).Assume the conveyor belt can be as long as a runway.Assume the wheels are strong enough to spin at any speed without breaking.Assume there are no snakes on this planeAssume the wheels are free-spinning and are not locked/braked in any way.So, what do you think?

Graham King Posted August 4, 2007 Share Posted August 4, 2007 Yes please!. Had most of the Multiplex range, but never tried this one. All multiplex models seem to go together and fly extremely well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

country flier Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Neat, a tailless configuration with a certain look that appears more scale than model. Multiplex scores again. Now flying it would require me to stay clear of the barn, grain bins and kite eating trees. Harold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Brooks Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 Ref GRE66's riddle. The term 'AeroPLANE' was originally applied to early fixed wing machines, and does not apply to helicopters, which are AirCRAFT. As to the original question, yes, the plane will take off. When the throttle is opened, whether it's propellor driven or jet, the motive force is applied to the air surrounding the craft, which will accelerate with respect to that air until its' AIRspeed is enough to give it lift. It's speed relative to the conveyor will be double its' airspeed (assuming no wind) but that doesn't matter a toss. OK, class is over, can I go and play with that fun jet now?
