Our Awesome Foss Plane

In this picture it shows Brendon and i (Rita) testing out a Foss plane that we both tried to make.

The way me and Brendon made the Foss plane is by first getting 2 Popsicle sticks and shaving the ends off by using sand paper, then we got 2 straws and cut them in half and slided them through the bigger straw, (they were dangling sort of) after we put the half straws in between the 2 Popsicle sticks and Mr.Reed stapled them together, then we got a propeller and 2 hangers we stuck one on the back and one on the front we stretched a rubber band on each hook.

We tested the plane by testing out how many winds it takes to go all the way without hitting the chair across the room it took 25 to go all the way, then we tested how much winds it takes to go half way and that took 20 winds to go half way.

After Mr.Reed said that we could try out different rubber bands and i learned that the bigger the rubber band the less winds it takes! It was a really fun experiment.
