Step 1.1 - Project Website

In 2010 the idea of the project of a new flying machine with the name "Skywalker" appeared. In the course of the development of this idea and to promote the project, the creation of a website was started. At the beginning of 2011 the site was opened for public access and its promotion in the Russian-speaking segment of the Internet was started. Information about the project was posted on thematic resources, the project was discussed on forums, in social networks and in Comments . The archive with messages that were published during these activities on external resources can be found on the Forum page (Russian language only).

Step 2.1 - Begin prototyping

In 2013, the creation of a small prototype on the Skywalker project was beginning. The first step in this effort was the manufacture of one of the nodes of the structure in the metal - a small heat engine. This node is an important element of the energy system of this design. And this node was first made as a workpiece completed by 90%, which required further refinement. But, in view of the fact that then the Skywalker project did not receive the necessary funding and was postponed, so this node was not completed either. After refinement of this unit, until fully readiness, tests should still be carried out to verify its work characteristics.
