Please briefly describe the successful test flight of the Wright brothers' first plane.
The Wright brothers are conducting a flight test.
The Wright brothers said that they solved the problem of stopping heavier-than-air planes from flying in the bicycle repair shop in Dayton. They said that one of their important inventions is to control the plane with a movable wing tip, which is a problem that no one else has ever solved. They also made a 25-horsepower light engine, which is lighter than any before, but provides more power than before. The two brothers then tested a series of scale models designed and manufactured by themselves in the wind tunnel. They said that the work took more than seven years and cost more than 1000 dollars. In any case, they said, they can only publish a detailed description of their plane after obtaining the patent right.
Two brothers, Orver Wright and Webber Wright, originally operated bicycles and were very good at mechanical manufacturing technology. They were one of many flying enthusiasts at that time. They began to study flight from 1896 and decided to build an engine-driven plane. Different from other flight design enthusiasts, they attach great importance to theory and read relevant literature on aerodynamics. In order to read Lithare's works, they also stubbornly studied German. After several years of repeated exploration, the Wright brothers finally built the first plane "Flyer 1".
1903 17 February 17 early morning 10: 35, wilbur wright, a German-American and bicycle manufacturer, and Orville Wright were flying their homemade plane on a hillside named "Cutting the Magic Mountain" in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, USA. With the help of the traction formed by the falling of heavy objects,
The first pilot at that time was Orville Wright. He flew 36.58 meters in 12 second. There were six witnesses who took photos to testify. * * * flew four times that day, and the best flight results were: endurance of 59 seconds, flying distance of 260 meters, flying height of 3.8 meters and speed of 48 kilometers per hour. The plane adopts a canard pneumatic layout, and a 12 horsepower internal combustion engine drives two air propellers through two bicycle chains. The pilot leaned over the lower wing to control the plane. The aircraft has a wingspan of 12.29 m and a weight of 274 kg. The Wright brothers and their trapeze plane went down in history. Prior to this, the Wright brothers' research on aircraft began at 1899, and three unpowered gliders were tested successively. Voyager was assembled in the winter of 1902. 1903 12 14 when they made their first test flight, they fell on the beach because of stall. The Wright brothers' advantage in aircraft manufacturing was not broken by European aviation pioneers until 1908.
