unstable

without a drogue, the fled goes into a death spiral.

 

this bamboo and tyvek fled is not perfectly symmetrical, and bows slightly to one side. I think this could be fixed by using poles that are split sections of bamboo 2-5cm in diameter, instead of the whole poles 1cm in diameter that I used. Small bamboo has variations along its length, larger bamboo split should have fewer variations.
