Time Flys

At my school GCE lab, we are learning about light, sound, and time. We went on field experience to the planetarium and we learned about relativity and the universe. Recently we learned about clocks and other time-telling devices. We had to create clocks. I made a flying clock. The types of people who would use this are hobbyists who like building things and people who like cool gadgets and novelty items. This is an original idea and I based it off a drone and an alarm clock. The flying part came from a helicopter and that goes back to Leonardo da Vinci Aerial screw design.

Just to restate some of the math

Circumference is 2x Pi x 3= 18.84 degrees for the small blade. The larger blade is 2 x Pi x 6= 37.6 degrees. 

Dimensions of the clock are 5.1x2.7x1.6 inches. the volume is 22.03 inches.

  In conclusion, I made a clock that can fly. I quite enjoyed this type of project where I got to share the info through a video that I made. I had some trouble keeping this video under 5 minutes and I needed to edit it down about a minute or two.
