Spinners, flyers, jumping jacks

Hello all! I thought I'd start a thread on anything that spins, flys (Not like rockets, but flys by spinning) and jumps. Does anyone know the formula for something like a jumping jack, or those things with wings that spin so fast they fly like 40 feet?

I am not sure about this, having never made them, but I believe that jumping jacks were simply a line of compressed gun powder and a line of loose gunpowder, one that provided the thrust, or jump, and the other that provided the bang. When made in a zigzag fashion, this burnt through its length.

Correct me if im wrong!

I've never used one with a bang, so I may be wrong, but I think that is incorrect. Someone who knows for sure?

Don't post threads just to have threads on a subject. Also, don't post links to your threads in other threads for no reason.
