This video technically has our (CU Boulder's) first crash at the DBF competition this year (2009). Thanks Jarryd!, for scaring half the team and nearly giving our project manager a heart attack. Ah, fun times.

  • Thanks, it's too bad a flying wing didn't work out for you. It was a tough decision to make and definitely did add to our design time, but we think it was well worth it. All of us from Colorado were very proud of our plane's final look and performance.

    Also, it was very fortunate that Jarryd didn't take out our plane (it was already our 2nd attempt on the loading mission), but it did hurt the box a little. Oh well, we don't care about it, and plan to do much greater harm to it very soon.

  • UC, your plane was my personal favorite at the competition. We (West Virginia University) tried a flying wing, didn't go so well. hahaha Eventually went with a conventional design. I'm glad your team mate didn't squash your plane though, it flew nicely from what I saw.
