Our objective was to design an advanced aircraft that could operate at elevated air speeds with an emphasis on maneuverability. The design did not optimize features to best fit the basic project requirement, but it instead facilitated our team’s goal to complete the proposed mission faster than a traditional propeller driven aircraft while still remaining within the project constraints. Furthermore, the aircraft was designed to be operated by a pilot with prior supplementary practice and experience. Since the aircraft was expected to accomplish the goals of the test flight comfortably, it was designed with high responsiveness to pilot inputs rather than remaining constrained to maintain dynamic and static stability. The initial flight of the fully 3D printed aircraft revealed issues with the propulsion system and landing gear. After a redesign, the plane flew successfully and sustained no damage throughout the entire flight day. At this point, all requirments for the plane had been met. Lator on, the plane’s limits were pushed using newly manufacturing carbon fiber wings; however, this flight day resulted in catastropic failure where only the landing gear and wings were salvagable.
