Project EZ Space Shuttle
The FT EZ Space Shuttle is a blast to fly, both as a free-flight glider and as an FT EZ-powered radio-controlled aircraft. The FT EZ Space Shuttle can be built in as little as 15 minutes and is specifically designed to help educate and inspire the next generation of aviation enthusiasts in the classroom and in the backyard. Combine the FT EZ Space Shuttle with the FT EZ Power Pack and enjoy flight times up to eight minutes long and a gentle flight experience that is fun for all pilots. In addition, by combining the FT EZ Space Shuttle with the FT STEM curriculum, pilots can learn the importance of the in-flight characteristics of proper weight and balance. The FT EZ Space Shuttle is fun for all ages!
Kit includes 2 airframes, (1) EZ FT STEM 2Ch EZ Power Pack v.2, and downloadable STEM lesson module.
This STEM lesson module guides the student and instructor through a series of lessons/activities, culminating in the student acquiring new aerodynamic concepts and skills through project-based learning. Students will have the opportunity to apply design thinking skills through our Engineering Design Model to create a solution to a problem. The FT STEM lesson modules are aligned with the ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) and other common standards, to be easily incorporated into a wide variety of learning environments and instructor needs, including but not limited to: home-centered education, classroom education, summer camps, and after-school programs.
This lesson module is:
- Unit 1: Project EZ Space Shuttle
- Lesson 1.5: FT EZ Space Shuttle Duo, Build and Test
- Length: Length: 10 days, 45-60 minutes per day
Goals:
- To understand basic aerodynamic vocabulary and concepts
- To understand and demonstrate what constitutes a proper glider slope
- To understand how weight distribution affects center of gravity and flight characteristics
- To understand how the Engineering Design Method can be used to solve problems
- To obtain The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST) certificate to legally fly recreationally (instructors should also obtain TRUST certification if they will be operating RC aircraft)
Evaluation method for Lesson 1.5: Test 1 (glider-only) plus Test 2 and Performance Task
