Introduction Unmanned Aircraft System Airframes • UAV is an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle • Our goal is to setup two different plane configurations with Paparazzi autopilot and fly them autonomously • Do this in conjunction with two separate Aerospace Engineer teams • Create a handbook detailing simple recreation of this project • Multiplex Funjet • Elevons only for pitch/roll control • Rear-mounted electric motor • Used by both AEM teams • Multiplex Minimag • Traditional rudder and elevators for pitch/roll control • Front-mounted electric motor • Used by AEM Team B • Our Group • Shuohan Wan • Dustin Douglas • Kevin Oberg • Special Thanks to… • Lockheed Martin Corp. engineers Reid Plumbo and Todd Colton • AEM Professor Hammer • AEM Project Teams A & B • EE Professor Ernie • The Paparazzi autopilot project is the premier open-source autopilot • Using it enables a UAS package to be sold internationally without limitations from the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR)
