Built And Demonstrated An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle With Towing Sensor
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University students scored big at the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics’ (AIAA) Design, Build, Fly competition, which pits university students from across the world against each other in challenges meant to test their skills in fabricating and demonstrating electric-powered, radio-controlled UAVs. Comprised of 25 Aerospace Engineering students, the Eagle team’s design featured a towed sensor — a torpedo-like tube with tail fins for stability that is stowed inside the aircraft then can be deployed in flight — and won third place overall, second in the United States, marking the best finish ever for an Embry-Riddle
