Bede Corp. - Videos and DVDs

SECTION ONE: Understanding Aerodynamic Drag

A very thorough discussion is made regarding the various forms of drag. It also shows the designer how it will influence the aircrafts performance. A reduction of drag of any aircraft is very beneficial and the actual effect this has on the performance, is described. Sometimes very small features or changes can have a significant effect on the performance of the aircraft. There are other items where drag is not that critical.

SECTION TWO: Selecting the Best Airfoil

There are literally thousands of reports and test documentation on the characteristics of airfoil shapes. In the past few years' computer programs have been developed to layout a specific airfoil based upon the desired characteristics the design is to achieve. There is a great deal to be considered in choosing an airfoil. These deal with all of these factors and give an understanding between reality and what is theory. It is advisable to review this to get a better understanding of all of the factors that go into selecting the best airfoil, either for the wing or tail surfaces.

SECTION THREE: Aircraft Wing Design

It is important to understand all of the factors that should be considered in determining the wing plan form. This video deals with determining and laying out a proper planform to have the desired results. The airfoil is important for drag reduction and high lift, but the planform also has a significant effect on both drag and lift.

SECTION FOUR: High Lift Devices for Aircraft Wings

This deals with all of the various forms of trailing edge, leading edge and other high lift devices. There are many factors to be considered such as, the actual detailed design of these devices. What also must be considered is the maintenance of these devices in the field. Manufacturing and assembling is also discussed. These factors are compared with each other. Also included are detailed discussions on the limitations for practical use of these high lift devices.

SECTION FIVE: Understanding Airplane Stability and Control

A good aircraft needs to be stable but not too stable. For a free flight model airplane it is important to have a high degree of stability in all directions. This is because there is no pilot operating the controls. For an actual airplane the controls themselves must counter the stability of the aircraft to change its direction of flight. The controls must do this in a proper and comfortable way This discusses all the factors to be considered in designing an aircraft to have proper stability and control in all three axis.

SECTION SIX: Aircraft Control Surfaces and Design

This is a very important design factor that must be understood by a designer. It is important that the aircraft has good flying qualities. By flying qualities it is meant that the control forces are smooth and even in all three axis. Also the rate at which the aircraft reacts to control inputs defines the flying qualities. The smoother and similar the force and response for each control is, the easier it will be for the pilot to learn to operate that aircraft and, therefore, the safer the aircraft can be. There are numerous subtle and simple design features which can be incorporated into the controls to obtain the best results. Many aircraft flying today violate many of these design characteristics. A pilot may learn to handle that peculiar aircraft, but not with the efficiency and smoothness of a proper design.

SECTION SEVEN: Design Procedures for Engine Cooling

This DVD discusses the various factors to be considered in obtaining adequate cooling for the engine with a minimum of drag. This is a very important design factor that is not dealt with properly by many texts books. Cooling drag can be as much as 20 percent of the total drag of an airplane. This is real benefit to someone designing an aircraft or wanting to improve an existing design.

SECTION EIGHT: What Pilots Should Know About Aerodynamics

This differs from the first seven in that is does not deal with specific aerodynamic factors. Instead it describes what a pilot really should understand about his airplane and about the aerodynamics that affect its operation. The more the pilot understands of the really important things that influence the airplane he is flying, the better, more efficient, and the safer the pilot will become.

Price: $24.99 per Video or DVD

SECTION NINE: Understanding the Aerodynamics of Automobiles

This discusses ground aerodynamics. Although aircraft and automobiles differ greatly the both operate in air and must obey the same laws of physics. This gives a better understanding of what the aerodynamic factors are that affect an automobile.
