- Quantum Imports Chewing Gum Shape Mini Stick DVR Camera
- small. almost wightless making not effect the flight path that much
- easy to use. basicly only 3 buttons.
- built in camera
- just duck tape to rocket for a recorded flight
- Thats why i think this would be a successful camer to use during rocket flight and was a probably used during the video.

Glider Challenge: Deliverables
Ours is the Orange one. The other planes are our competition.
Design Process to Test day
-Came up with 3 designs during our brainstorm session
-We chose one that would be easy to build and in our opinion would fly pretty decently compared to our other 2 designs
-Built and rebuilt and redesigned as obsticles came up
-such as breaking, glue drying capabilities and weight
-Tested and again redesigned our plane
-we had to put a weight on it and then take some off as it became to heavy
-Competition day, 2nd in distance, 4th in flight time.
Redesigns:
-weight in the front to keep it moving down and not flipping upwards
-Kept it from not nose diving as much as ours did
-replaced wings. The wings kept breaking so we replaced them

engineering program investigation
College/University of interest: MIT
Why does this institution appeal to you?:
-This college interests me because I want to become some sort of engineer and this is an engineering school.
Which engineering program is most interesting to you and why?:
-The nanotechnology program is most interesting to me because I have never heard of it before so I was really intrigued by the program.
Which undergraduate engineering elective is most interesting? Describe the course and its appeal to you: -Nanotech. because again I have never heard of it.
-This course includes developing Nanotech. for millitary and medical uses. For the millitary the interest lies in the kind of body armer they would have created.
-I really don't have an interest in medical purposes but it was part of the course description.
