Fixed Wing Aircraft Design
■ Project will feature continuation of two
ongoing designs:
– All-Electric Two Seat Light Sport Aircraft
– Preliminary design, analysis and simulation
– Nuage UAV Trainer
– Final design, construction and flight testing
■ Conceptual design of a new aircraft
– 2017-18 AIAA Undergraduate Team Design
Competition (aircraft type TBD)

Light Sport Aircraft
■ Design of a new all-
electric LSA
■ Aerodynamics,
structures, human
factors, avionics
■ Novel electric
propulsion systems
■ Wind tunnel testing,
prototyping and
analysis Airbus E-Fan All-Electric Demonstrator
13
Nuage Trainer UAV
■ Small (<25 kg) gas powered trainer UAV
■ Intended to be used as a “flying lab” to train operators,
maintainers and students
■ Equipped with remote sensing systems and an autopilot
■ 2017-18 team will begin construction (Fall) and test flight
demonstrator (Winter)
