ARDA Mk3 : A GREAT STEP, "The Power On Board" test...

Dear All,

Today I have done an important experiment with the ARDA Mk3 (The
Biefeld-Brown Effect Wing) :

The "Power On Board" test (POB test) is a great step for the ARDA Project.
The purpose of this test is to prove that a Biefeld-Brown effect flying wing
is able to generate its OWN THRUST with its power supply "on board" and
disconnected from the ground.
In a previous test with the 1/4 scale mockup (see "The closed loop run"
test), I have demonstrated that a light ARDA wing is able to propel itself,
but in this case the HV generator was outside and someone could have said
that the observed thrust was generated by the influence of the surrounding
wiring setup (the frame) and some pure electrostatic forces due to HV
generator placed outside the wing.

So, to prove that the thrust is not generated by the wiring frame around the
ARDA wing, this test uses a big and heavy ARDA wing ( 3.7 kg ) with its own
HV power supply "on board".

The "Power On Board" test has been done successfully on November 27th, 1999 (
16h00 )...

Tests are not yet finished..stay tuned....
