description: The scoring of the AIAA Design Build Fly competition was used to develop a strategy and design methodology to complete the missions. Once the aircraft’s objectives were determined, preliminary design specifications and dimensions were calculated. The team continued theoretical development through structural analysis and flow simulation. To validate our analyses and improve our design, three iterations of the aircraft were developed. The team tested the aircraft with ground and flight tests to optimize the design.
