"Now, we are approaching the midpoint of the race, and the gap between the lead group and the second group is closing, but we cannot afford to be complacent yet!
The air race was now in its fourth lap, and things were heating up even more.

The spectators were cheering loudly, and behind the scenes there seemed to be betting on who would be the winner.
"Well, I don't like betting, but I'd rather have a sanctioned bet than have these behind-the-scenes betting going on. It would bring in more money for the host city.

The first group is number 9,2,7! A few seconds behind, the second group! A few seconds behind is the second group, number 8,1,3!
"We've roughly divided into three groups. After all, speed is the key to success on this course.
Makina explained.

"To begin with, the course was not announced to the participants until just before the event. Therefore, it was up to the discretion of each individual to decide what adjustments to make to his or her own machine.
"I see. So it was possible to set a technical course.
"That's right. This time, one of the organizers ...... or I should say the host, Mr. Jin, tried to do it.

You are asking me which is better, to let people know about the course in advance or to let people know about the course in advance?
"That's what I meant. I would say that this method is more focused on the technical skills of the participants.
Makina said, "That's just like Jin, the engineer.

"I'm sure everyone would have made the speed-type adjustments."

Number 1 is the Road Toss.

"Ha ha ...... seems to have sacrificed stability to increase mobility."
Can you do that, Makina-san?
"Yes, it is possible. Changing the direction of flight is affected by the overall length and width of the aircraft.

"...... I see, so you are saying that a large aircraft cannot turn in a small radius?"
"That's right. And the number 1 has a smaller circular wing, so it is originally a small aircraft that can turn easily.
Makina and Yuzo Mayaka looked at the Number 1 as it flew across the magic screen.

"Yes, indeed.
"Yes, indeed," said Yuzo, "but to compensate for this, the distance between the gondola with the pilot's seat and the wings was set farther than in other planes. We have made it closer by means of a device installed in the fuselage."
Yuzo Mayaka checked the magic screen again,

"Oh, it's true. ...... have you heard that? The number 1 has such a secret!"
"I guess it was because it was more agile and slowed down less on the turns, so it overtook the number 8."

"Oh, Rhodes, you're up in the rankings. ...... Oh, he's starting to take advantage of his small turnaround."
Reinhardt reacted to this.

"Ah, so it was Jin's advice after all.
"Yes, I was just giving you a hint rather than advice.
"Hmm, but will changing the position of the pilot's seat reduce the turning radius?

"Well, I could understand if it would make it easier to ascend and descend," said Reinhardt.
"Reinhardt is right. Rhodes seems to have changed the position of the balance weight at the same time as he changed the position of the cockpit."
"What? I hadn't noticed that.

Reinhard scratches his head.
"That's true. The balance weight is not a definite weight, but a main girder to support the circular wing.

Hannah reacted to Jin's words.
"Haha, even Hannah thinks so. But you'll understand if you think about how to use the circular wings.
"Let's see... ...... Oh, I see! As long as we use it as a parachute, it doesn't need to be that rigid!"

"Correct."
This race is a simple circumnavigation race.
Therefore, the role of the wings is to keep the plane afloat and level.

If this were an acrobatic race with rapid ascent and descent, right and left turns, etc., the strength of the wings would have been an important factor.
However, for simple circumnavigations, there is no need for rigid wings.
Therefore, Rhodes activated the gimmick in the middle of the race, when the flow of the race had settled down and the pattern could be read.

He reduced the moment of inertia so that the boat could make small turns.
"You digested my hints like that."

It was an approach that even Jin was impressed with.
