  1. Aero Design Group 10 DimitriosArnaoutis Alessandro Cuomo Eduardo Krupa Gustavo Krupa Jordan Taligoski David Williams Mid-Term Review

  2. Summary of Presentation • Our Project • Current Status • Design • Building • Prototype Design Tests • Potential Issues • Revised Schedule • Travel Budget • Summary

  3. Motivation • SAE Collegiate Design Series

  4. Competition Field

  5. Skeleton Before Wrapping

  6. Construction Underway Wood for Wing Spar Wing Spar

  7. Current Status:Building/Ordering • Completed: • Main wing • Vertical Stabilizer • Rudder • Ailerons • Ready to build: • Tailboom • Fuselage • Horizontal Stabilizer • Landing Gear • Hobbytown: • Received last ordered parts (2/15): • Regulation motor arrived • Rest of wood for 1st plane • Need to order: • Monokote • Battery Pack • Servos & Couplers • Motor Mount

  8. 2º Design • 1º Design Landing Gear

  9. Wing Bending and Wing Torsion

  10. Treffitz Plane Analysis • AVL model • The 2 degree twist assures a CL local curve is smooth along the wingspan and the minimum Oswald efficiency is about 98%

  11. Tail-size Modification • The Static Margin was estimated to be 0.29. • Large static stability margin. The aircraft was then considered hard to maneuver. • Solution - Increase the Tail Size from 0.39 cm to 0.46 cm Stabilizer Thrust Pitch Angle

  12. Prototype Test: Physical • Static Thrust of Motor • Size, test & Install servos • C.G. estimation • Static structural tests • When prototype completed: • First flight test with & without payloads…

  13. Potential Issues • Prototype: Need test flight • We need a plane our pilot feels comfortable flying

  14. Revised Schedule

  15. Travel Budget: • Gas • 289 miles/car each direction at $3.60/gallon and 20 mpg = $210 • Hotel in Marietta, GA • $90/room/night • 1 room Friday and 2 rooms Saturday = $286.20 with tax • Total Travel Expenses • ~$500
