HISTORY MEGA MANTA
PROGRESSION OF THE LAUNCHER'S DESIGN
THE MEGA MANTA 9 FOOT SINGLE
MOTOR
NEEDED A TALL
PEDDLE LAUNCHER WITH 100 FEET OF BUNGEE AT FIRST
THE PEDDLE RELEASE
AND 5/8 BUNGEE LAUNCHING SYSTEM WITH TALL STAND
WORKED WELL, BUT NEEDED A LITTLE EXTRA PIZZAZZ
CONSTRUCTION OF THE 9 FOOT WING
HAY THIS IS TO BIG TO BE LAUNCHED BY ONE GUY
9 FOOT MEGA MANTA NEEDS TWO OR MORE GROUND CREWMEN
GROUND LEVEL PEDDLE LAUNCHER W 100FT BUNGEE
THE BUNGEE DID NOT HAVE THE OOMPH
FOR 9 FOOT MEGA MANTA REACH FLYING SPEED
TWO GROUND CREW & BUNGEE LAUNCH WORKED
BUT IT NEEDS A LITTLE WORK
ANDREAS AND MICHAEL WERE NEED,
BUT A SINGLE PILOT OPERATION WAS
NOW TARGET FOR DESIGN
THE PEDDLE LAUNCHER MODIFIED WAS THE NEXT STEP TO LAUNCHING A 9FT WING
THE PEDDLE LAUNCHER MODIFIED
WITH 100FT BUNGEE WORKS WELL WITH ONE MAN LAUNCH
HOWEVER SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE ADDED TO THE TALL PEDDLE/BUNGEE LAUNCHER
