COMPLETED PROJECTS

Micro Class UAV

Micro Class UAV

The club designed, built and flew a 3D printed RC Plane. The Micro Class UAV made trades between two potentially conflicting requirements: carrying the highest payload fraction possible and pursuing the lowest empty weight possible.

Autonomous UAV with Hotspot Detection

Autonomous UAV with Hotspot Detection

The Club designed, built and flew an Autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle that met many anticipated requirements and was capable of hotspot detection.

Racing Drone

Racing Drone

The club designed, built and flew a high-speed, agile unmanned aerial vehicle designed specifically for competitive racing. Its sleek, aerodynamic frame is typically made from lightweight material i.e. carbon fiber to maximize speed and maneuverability while ensuring durability.

ONGOING PROJECTS

Flying wing configuration of RC Plane

1. Flying wing configuration of RC Plane

An innovative design approach that eliminates the conventional tail section, resulting in a more efficient and aerodynamic aircraft with reduced drag and improved performance.

Ornithopter

2. Ornithopter

A fascinating aircraft that mimics the flapping-wing motion of birds, providing unique flight characteristics and research opportunities in biomimetic engineering.

3. Custom build flight controller firmware using STM 32 microcontroller

Developing specialized firmware for precise control and optimization of drone flight characteristics, tailored to our specific requirements and performance goals.

4. Autonomous fixed wing UAV

Creating a self-navigating fixed-wing aircraft capable of executing missions autonomously, with applications in surveillance, mapping, and data collection.
