of times their size. There are many factors that contribute to the hummingbirds ’ ability to fly so easily through the air. A hummingbird ’s wings are shaped so that they are slightly rounded on the top. "Their wings flaps 15-80 times per second‚ depending on the type of species they are. The Giant Hummingbird ’s wings beat 8-10 beats per second‚ the wings of medium size hummingbirds beat 20-25 beats per second and the smallest beat 70 beats per second."< http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hummingbirds>

weight. Thrust is the force that propels the object forward. For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction‚ therefore the force opposite of thrust is drag.

Weight is a force that is always directed towards the earth‚ vertically‚ through the planes center of gravity. An airplanes mass would be the weight of all its parts‚ plus

Another extremely important design factor is adding dihedral and maybe even polyhedral to the glider’s wings. This allows the plane to “naturally” stabilize itself. Dihedral is the upward angle of the wings on a plane and polyhedral is upward angle further down the wings. I’m going to put dihedral and polyhedral however‚ together they both will add up to an angle of 8 degrees which I believe would be an overall good angle. The reason
