AEAC Phase 1

  • Design paper is due January 15 @ 5 PM EST

  • Aiming to have a first draft completed by this Friday

  • Looking for support from people on autonomy to write the mapping sections

  • Please let me know if you’d like to help out!

AEAC Phase 2

Task 1: Approach

  • Thoughts on using a secondary airframe, something Houston sized (smaller than peggy), for Task 1?

    • Multiple airframes is allowed for comp

    • Derisks Task 1 by using a cheaper airframe for testing and at competition

    • Allows us to remove autonomy system from Pegasus

  • Bringing up a CF airframe, 7” or 10” prop range, could allow us to learn how to tune as well

    • Houston’s current plastic airframe is very vibey and makes tuning difficult.

  • Autonomy System Flight Testing Schedule

    • Definition of minimum viable system should be aligned upon

Task 2: Pegasus Payload Redesign

  • December 14th FT revealed some challenges with the current system.

  • Scoop solution has been ruled out due to leaking issues?

  • What is path forward toward mechanical solution

  • Pegasus 2 tuning plan.

Eclipse Fixed Wing Timeline

  • Pilot training foam plane timelines

  • Mechanical simulation: is it overweight?

VTOL Plan

  • If this is something we are going to be doing then it will need more attention following the eclipse program. Else we will need to focus on maintaining a quadcopter platform into 2026 competition?

    • Current director’s will all be stepping down post comp so our efforts toward managing VTOL will be minimal, either the next generation should step up into this program or we should align on not driving it.
