5) What designs from your class did well? Based on the achievements you earned, how would you redesign your solution to score better? Be specific (sketches with labeling work well for this). Joe's design did very well, the eggo was logged inside a noodle, acting as a capsul. He also used a paraschute in order to slow the design down enough. If I had a chance to redesign mine, I think i would have tried to bring the weight down to under 50 lbs.
