 Discraft Corp Posted on: Tue Mar 16, 2004 2:18 amAnyone Know anything about Discraft corp.'s Recent entry? I've seen some working blast wave pulsejets on the web, but it looks like heat buildup will be a tough obstacle to beat.
They look like a plausable underdog, but they definately need a website to promote their progress. _________________ I wonder how many of the serfs even remember that the founders intended to create a free country here. DO NOT ADJUST YOUR MIND: IT IS REALITY THAT IS MALFUNCTIONING |

Posted on: Wed Mar 17, 2004 4:59 pm Heh. Sure we do -- I kinda like the idea of a flying saucer -- but (apparently) nobody knows the answer to your question.

Posted on: Wed Mar 17, 2004 7:16 pm I would have an answer if I had a website to go swipe it off.

Posted on: Wed Mar 17, 2004 8:54 pm That's the problem. Someone needs to teach discraft a little PR. Maybe they don't want to keep the public updated. If scaled composites sees someone in their rearview, they can easily accelerate their project.
I'd love to see discraft come from behind and snatch the X-prize. I've found One website about blastwave technology, they even sell plans for all you gearheads to tinker with. http://blastwavejet.com/ _________________ I wonder how many of the serfs even remember that the founders intended to create a free country here.

Posted on: Thu Mar 18, 2004 3:30 am I found another site. Blastwave pulse jet Go-Kart? Man people are crazy in New Zealand.
http://www.aardvark.co.nz/pjet/mylockwood.shtml He also has a wealth of information on homemade traditional pulse jets. and PDE's _________________ I wonder how many of the serfs even remember that the founders intended to create a free country here.

Last I heard he was trying to find a way of test firing/flying it when the New Zealand government stopped it. |

Posted on: Mon Apr 12, 2004 11:05 pm Wicked. Hopefully this guy doesn't kill himself before I get advanceaerospace going!
Though I have no idea about engineering, so have no idea of what I'd like to build. To enjoy life you've gotta have dreams though! |
