  3. Overview • Objective • Mission Overview • Deployment • Aerodynamics • Structures • Propulsion • Electronics • Project Plan • Major Risk Assessments • Summary • References • Appendices

  4. Primary Objective “To design, fabricate, integrate and verify a RC controlled UAV capable of being remotely deployed from the ARES aircraft and flying a specific flight pattern.”

  5. D-SUAVE Feedback Primary Factors Requirement flow down Stability of airplane during deployment Deployment scenarios affect the configuration selected Where do we deploy from? Secondary Factors What is the expected data transfer or collection rate? Under what atmospheric conditions the system should be able to operate What supports the mass determination? Required deployment force and acceleration the aircraft must withstand Why a Micro aerial vehicle? What is the detail of the mission? Overestimating propeller efficiencies Sketches/pictures of the possible configurations Who will pilot the vehicle?
