This Mathcad worksheet provides an interactive workbench to do "what-ifs" for your frisbee's flight path.What if I changed the intial velocity or the attack angle? Mathcad will automatically plot your frisbee's trajectory,letting you view several at one glance.

Hello allIs any other school currently doing this project?http://www.ptc.com/company/community/scalextric4schools/I have 30 eager students that have been waiting since September 2012 to do this project, unfortunately Horby have shown no stock available on the parts since then.PTC has been contacted and chased this up but I've received no update since November. Quite disappointing really as why run a project/challenge if the parts aren't available for 4+ months.Has anybody been successful in ordering the parts and completing the project?ThanksChris

If you've ever seen me attempt to throw (or flail) a Frisbee into a goal during an ultimate Frisbee match, you probably were a little bit worried about a robot doing that same task for the 2013 FIRST Robotics Competition challenge, Ultimate Ascent. Good thing we have engineering on our side!Excuse me, I have yet to introduce myself! I'm Eunice Kokor and I am Team 1671, the Buchanan Bird Brain's current CEO and past CAD lead. So, I'm pretty familiar with PTC, Creo (and its old days as Pro-Engineer!), Windchill (file management for the win), and I've given a good attempt at MathCAD. I actually make my AP Physics formula sheets digitally using MathCAD. It's a lot better than the scribbled mess of equations that everyone else uses. That's one of the perks of being on a robotics team, I guess! Back to the point. Our previous CEO, Evan Giarta, blogged about his experiences throughout the build season. And I thought that was cool and it gave everyone else a interesting perspective of how we'r

OK, so I just got Creo 2.0 installed via Parallels to boot my BootCamp partition and everything works fine as long as I'm in Paralells. However, when I boot Windows natively on the BootCamp partition, I get squawk from the license manager that the license file is running against an invalid host.Is this a known issue or a bug and is there a fix so I can run Creo from Parallels and booting off of the BootCamp partion? I've got a screenshot of the dialog if that is of use.If I have to choose one or the other I would rather choose BootCamp, Paralllels has a bit too much overhead.Thanks,MGL

How to modify, or edit features by double LH clicking on them thus displaying feature and sketch dimensions and enabling them to be modified.Ideal when developing designs and wanting to view changes as they happen.There is no need to access the features in the Model Tree.

We have moved the school from Windows XP to Windows 7 recently and now have a problem when trying to extrude. I should add that I support the IT in this school, and am not an expert in ProDesktop. I have tried a couple of options suggested on the forums here, (right-click, Run as Administrator, which the pupils can't do by the way, and disable graphics hardware acceleration) but neither of them work. I appreciate that ProDesktop 8 is an old program, though a well-used one, but i would appreciate any help the community could offer me.

Hi folks,I'm experiencing some "challenges" with the FIRST Windchill 10.1 server lately. I'm getting a bit concerned since kickoff is barely more than a month away.Is anybody else experiencing extremely slow refresh rates, slow downloads and incomplete searches?Thanks,Josh

During this webinar, PTC will be covering the process for which a team would solve the challenge using a baseline design. We will be looking at the different phases; including concept, preliminary and detailed design. The intent is to help educate teams on what they should be doing for the challenge.       (view in My Videos)

I got the initial invitation as my team's primary contact about a month ago and logged into Windchill for the first time back then. Now that I've managed to organize all of the students along with an engineer from the JPL, how do I send them invitations to the project?

Many of you will remember www.prodestop.net, a very popular forum for everything Pro|DESKTOP.  Traffic on the site has dropped off significantly so PTC has taken the decision to stop funding the site to release funds to invest in Pro|ENGINEER related activities.   If you are reading this you will know about the PTC forums called Planet PTC.  We encourage all teachers using Pro|ENGINEER to use this site to showcase their work and the work of pupild.  Take a look at Pro|ENGINEER strand in the fourms, posts and replies from professional engineers can be very informative.
