September 26, 200718 yr The new flying saucers are here for 2008! Offering a smoother ride, more comfortable seating, and an even greater lift capacity for those exta-heavy payloads!! Plus, in addition to the standard grey, silver, and ultraviolet, the new models are available in a wide array of exciting new colors - fiery red-orange, cool mint green, and deep sky blue. -more to come~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!
September 26, 200718 yr Author more!!!!! Better hovering and wind stabilizers come as standard features, and the delux models come with see-thru floors! Come check out our new models in the showdeck today!:)
September 26, 200718 yr Author In addition to all these great features, we've added an optional moon roof, and the landing lights are now full - spectrum!!!!!:bulb:
September 26, 200718 yr Are they solar or do I have to fork out a pound a litre for the priviledge of running this thing?
September 28, 200718 yr Author If you fly them during the day, the moon roof option becomes a sun roof, so there is at least some solar light and heat..;) I think they could operate well on biofuels.. It take a lot of energy for interstellar travel - if you don't mind nuclear fuel, which, pound for pound provides the best energy density - tho you need some sort of permits to buy it. Hmmm... I suppose, if we made the surface large enough, solar might work - I'll look into that.;)
September 29, 200718 yr Author Work with me here - frisbees fly pretty well, and if you could just get the right propulsion system put into the thing, it could work! I thought about jet propulsion - turbine blades mounted on concentric rings near the outer perimeter of the craft providing lift while in the atmosphere.. Tho that might provide stability challenges. engines could be placed neatly beneath the craft, and the upper spinning surface used as a lift wing of sorts.. Some recollection of a news story years back - a competition in Russia to get flying saucer models to lift off the ground I do recall, but none were successful then. Still, if the physics makes sense, one should be able to get the device to work.. Give me some positive feedback here!
