Well, not a "prototype" .. Regular electric R/C plane. Sold as a kit by
several manufacturers and easy to make from Depron if you don't want to
buy one.
http://www.hlihobby.dk/shop/euro-disc-5543p.html for example.
All you need to do is scale that up and add a large bearing to isolate
the crew compartment from rotation.
AFAIKT many efforts towards circular wing was to create stall proof
designs that kind of 'mushed' forward rather than stall.
Other efforts were directed towards exploiting the coanda effect.
The forum where I found the link said that two were being modified as
MAV prototypes by a University. But other disc-type MAVs and UAVs
already exist.

Gee Dean, how many is that??? An instant 100+ from 1910-present?
Don't you wish you knew anything about the history of world disc
development?
Rob
Sorry for the repeat list. First time it did not show up... RAM screw-
up... ???
Rob
The Frisbee has generated a higher gross sales and
profits then all them on the list combined Rob.
The Frisbee has an attractive glide ratio considering
"aspect ratio", (I don't fully understand it), but I think
it is limited in scale up by Reynolds Number.
Thinking further about that, what's the smallest good
Frisbee?
Ken
Don't you wish you could provide an example of any disc aircraft
other than Vought's Flying Flapjack that made multiple safe flights
(documented) and that led to a production prototype xenia?
Wham-O used to make a 4" Frisbee.
Cool your jets Rob, I was merely making a statement that a Frisbee is
indeed a flying disc.
There is no possible way you can say with any amount of certainty that
there are not non-terrestrial craft or even if the claimed Freiburg
Disc was not reverse-engineered at Wewelsburg. The SS Technical Branch
used such castles as labs and research centers b/c of security of not
being bombed as a military target. Wolfenstein was real too, among
many others.
Ever see the occult interior of Wewelsburg? It was to be the spiritual
center of Himmler's SS Empire within Greater Germania had the Nazis
won. Himmler wanted to run an occult, mystic state with himself as
Drighten Overlord with the SS serving as Thales and surrounded by
occult and holy objects. Worship would be of the Black Sun (and not
the Cross of Christianity) mixed with pagan God & Goddess worship-
chief among them Isias the mountain Goddess. Huge underworld complexes
would be built as opposed to Speer and Hitler's above-ground new Roman
Empire of Germania.
I have disclaimers up for the Freiburg disc, but have no real opinion
since there is no way to KNOW for sure. The Haunebu I's EMG engine
most likely was the result of a fusion of Tesla's designs for
electrogravitational aircraft, German quantum physics, Vril's
metaphysical R&D, and SS Technical Branch unorthodox (for the late
1930s-40s) technology. IMO, no aliens required. However, I cannot
simply rule it out b/c of my own beliefs in German scientific
progress.
One might also argue that Hess was kept away from the entire world b/c
of disclosure of first contact and the Antarctic files. It would have
been, and still would be, the greatest secret held by mankind. And
contrary to reports of New Age non-fear of that revelation, I am with
the politicians and military that say that such a disclosure would
disrupt the entire world system and create an atmosphere of world
panic and chaos as belief systems worldwide crashed by billions of
people.
You make up your own mind what to believe, but don't tell others what
not to when you have no real admittance by the USAF, NASA, UN, and
world governments about what they have retrieved, reverse-engineered,
or fought in the skies that the public has no access to. For 50 years
the USAAF/USAF told everyone the Germans did NOT have any disc
aircraft only to reverse themselves under FOIA documents obtained by
Jim Wilson in 1995. Yet they gave no identifications, no photos, no
flight films, offered no evidence, and no access to machines that old.
Basically they LIED to people for 50 years and now it is 62 years w/o
any further information. Same for the Foo Fighters which were
deliberately labeled PHOO BOMBS so as not to be discovered in FOIA
inquiries. It failed, however, when one declassified document gave
away that designation from US wartime Intel from 1944. Now it is 100%
verified in writing that those weapons were German-made. The document
is reproduced at Black Sun.
Sorry, but I was never fooled and I heard that the Germans had disc
craft from my own father-a government arms inspector and from his
former OSS/CIA friends who actually occupied underground SS Technical
Branch facilities in 1945. I was told they had operating disc craft in
1975 and again in 1982. They had FIRST-HAND KNOWLEDGE.

Rob
Not that lie again, xenia.
> Yep, I still have one of them somewhere. Kind of harder to throw though
> than a standard Frisbee.
You have to understand the Frisbee® was designed by the Nazis in
their secret SS underground u-boat base in Antarctica. They are raising
money for a 4th reich and UFO research into electromagnetic-coanada
effect - gravity flexing - mercury powered - Sanskrit flying saucers
since the Nazis couldn't do it during the 3rd reich. The code name is
xenia named after a half German babbling cross dressing demigod who was
incapable of reproducing. Xenia was the demigod of irrational thought
and untruths.

But maybe feldgrau? Rob would know....

You should never make such assumptions about what Rob believes.
Get him to tell you about the occult, mercury powered, sanscrip disk
that fly zillions of miles per hour.
On the bright side she will never reproduce.
The US Navy did a pretty good boondogle on a program using an enlarged
frisbee with a Flare on it to see if it was feasable. it wasn't.
Yes, your Tax Dollars at rest.
Yeah, bet you AF guys seen bottle caps snapped like
a little frisbee. A buddy of mine was great at it, 30-40
feet.
Ken
Only someone really lame would compare a toy Frisbee with SAP (Special
Access Program) a/c.
And the V-173 was a failure BTW as was the XF5U-1.
Others flew before it like the Lee Richards Annular Monoplane and
Biplane, Nemeth Round Wing, Guido Tallei Diridisk, Arup S-1 Uniplane
to S-4 models, and Kalinin K12. Foo Fighter sightings were in the
hundreds during the war and that IS identified as a German weapon
under PHOO BOMB and other documents list German flight discs. Postwar
secrecy has kept most disc programs quiet,but there is ample proof of
Avro Canada's 16 designs and that propaganda Avrocar, Townsend Brown's
documented experiments, and even foreign craft like Rene Couzinet's
disc and the Suchanov Discoplans mixed with a multitude of disclosed
patents by Republic, Northrop, Lockheed, Boeing, and NASA to show that
the type of unrequired military and space platform was being
researched in the Black Project realm.
I'm sorry you cannot accept the accounts from US Army documents, USAAF
and USAF records, BIOS/CIOS/FIAT/FOIA documents, eyewitness accts from
Robert J. Lee and the 2 USAF reporters sent to MacDill AFB that saw
Nazi disc and cylindrical ship technology, or the postwar patents of
known German disc specialists.
You can accept all the Black Projects that are conventional with ease,
but have some sort of mental block on disc a/c.
I can accept that you can't comprehend EMG, mercury-ion, and vortex
(low atomic pressure) propulsion systems or zero-point energy... but
others do and they are no more pipe dreams than jet a/c and the atomic
bomb were in the 1930s. the bomber pilots and gunners that first
encountered the German jets and rocket planes gasped at the sight of
propellerless a/c which was thought impossible and yet that did not
stop the Germans from producing 3 jet types and 1 rocket type plus
experiments and prototypes for 20 more in a short timespan.
But hey, don't let that stop you from your Frisbee banter...
A kids toy's , a kid's mentality.

Some of my best friends are pathological, they are
unable to sort fact from fiction. It's cause is drug use,
political-religious indoctrination, sometimes congenital.
It's a form of schizophrenia, for example, a symptom
of that ailment is acquiring alternative personalities,
like "Xenia".
Most are intelligent and believe themselves to be
honest, and would give the shirt off their back to
help you, IOW's people I'd welcome as neighbours.
Yours Truly xxx
Rachel
As for patents take a look at the rather large number of patented
inventions have never been built and therefore proved to work.
As for "eyewitness accounts" talk to any criminal law expert.
Eyewitness accounts are notoriously unreliable.
Well, Rachel, let's not blame drugs in xenia's case. It may be as
simple as her being born with a wire hanger embedded in her head and
feeling unwanted ever since.
AAAhhh, Dan, I believe in latitude.
Ken
But Master, shoud not lattitude come from within ?

Dave Kearton
But then should not the lattitude and longitude be flexible, like the reed
in the wind or like gravity in an EMG Maytag Vortex ?

Dave Kearton
Not with those damn pebbles again master - you're deliberately gonig slow
I use the term lie because she keeps making up her sources. This is a
new one. It's just a variation on her old lies.
Speaking of "path" I've had a few friends who were
"pathological", where they could not honestly sort
fact and fiction, it sort of blends in their mind.
Appears to be caused by heavy drug use, zealous
religious-political indoctrination, or congenital, it's a
form of schizophrenia, which Rob appeared to exhibit
by switching to "Xenia", proving it happens even to
intelligent, well intentioned people.
Ken
A friend of mine claimed to have been in a secret
USAF hangar that had a *flying saucer* hovering
in it...very hush-hush, made for a good yarn.
When I asked if it could have been a balloon
he changed the subject.
We had a Maytag washer that when activated
shook the whole house with invisible force beams,
until wife balanced the laundry load.

We usually think of a bullet with it's axis of
rotation parallel to it's trajectory, and that's
the principle of the rifle, gyroscopically
stabilizing the bullet.
Let's do a bit of physics.
I submit: The gyroscopic stability can be
perpendicular to the bullet.
How?
Shoot a rapidly spinning washer with razor
sharp edges, with the same momentum as
a 45 calibre bullet, except the disc bullet will
have a much smaller air friction co-efficient,
terms like sectional density and ballistic
co-efficient apply...in that case the stablity
vector is perpendicular to trajectory.
I'll add, convention bullets have a problem
with rear ass suction.
Might be an improved way of employing
explosive energy where anti-personel
shapnel ordinance is concerned.
Full steam ahead, damn the torpedoes.
Build it, try it.

And as for the link on mercury turbines? There is quite a difference
between a turbine using mercury as a working fluid and a mercury-ion engine.
NASA experiemnted with a mercury-ion engine, so where is there any
conflict in that discussion???
You can also just Google for that simple information...
Rob
p.s. Nick Cook (of Jane's) book "Hunt for Zero Point" is controversial
b/c it deals with Die Glocke (Nazi Bell Device); but no matter what
the criticism about his trip and research, I do believe he gets into
the scientific discussion of Zero Point energy. The Bell Device is so
controversial and the zero-point science along with it, that I could
not hope to write anything more than Cook had. My page at my site just
repeats the basics on the Bell and does not even attempt to explain
the zero-point science (it would take many pages or a scientific sub-
section):
