Fostering Team Work Team Meeting Structure: Keys to Team Building
Provide team lead with a list of what you did last week and what you plan to do this week, submitted via before weekly meeting. Weekly meeting will begin with a round table discussion of what each member has done and plans to do to the entire group. This will also be a time to have presentations on new ideas, completed tasks, or other things relevant to the group, as well as time to ask for assistance on tasks that need additional attention. Meetings will be concluded by discussing any new or open action items and assigning action items to individuals, along with completion dates. Keys to Team Building Establish roles – A single leader and clear individual roles Exploiting assets – Capitalizing on our strengthens to be productive Establish a clear problem – Promote the understanding of the entire problem to each team member Establish clear goals – Expectations and deadlines (direction) – roadmap Welcome challenges to prevailing ideas – create an open environment Spend time together – frequent informal and formal meetings Establish expectations – Set the expectation of quality work, build ownership of the project, individual teams will set “values and norms” during the first week

AY: 2008-2 – 2008-3 Track Project Lead Airframe A Matt Greco P09231
The Airframe A project will build 6 of the Aero Design Team instructional planes. This design is smaller than the proposed vehicle platform of the family and cannot carry a large payload. However, they can be used by the other groups to test lightweight, initial concepts of their projects. This design should be modified as needed, and used to characterize flight dynamics to assist in future design work. The high level goal of this project is to develop a robust aero platform with a high success rate and extreme ease of interchangeability of costly components. A large portion of work will be in optimization and redesign. Airframe B Josh Wagner P09232 The Airframe B project plane will be modeled after the Aero Design Team's Split Decision aircraft. The payload specifications of the aircraft will be selected as the standard for this and future designs. The goals of this project are to complete and optimize the design, make it more rugged, and ensure that it provides a suitable platform for our project. Measurements Michael Skube P09233 The Measurements group will purchase and test a variety of pressure, temperature, and acceleration sensors. Focus will be not only on calibration and implementation of the sensors with a data acquisition system but also decide, with input from the Airframe and Controls groups, the locations for the sensors so they can provide the necessary information to control the airframe. Additional monitoring and measurements will be done on additional onboard airframe properties. Payload Steve Sweet P09235 The Payload group will interact closely with the Airframe B and the Aerial Imaging teams to finalize payload specifications that are suitable for both projects. This team will also design concepts for bomb-bay doors. The doors will remain closed to reduce drag and protect the imaging equipment when not in use, and will open to expose the payload when it is needed. These designs will be incorporated into the "A" trainer planes to test their viability. The best solution will be scaled up and incorporated into the larger "B" plane. The system should be rugged, lightweight, and simple. Controls Jim Hunt P09234 The controls project will consist of taking a Model R/C Plane Dynamics by use of a wind tunnel. The wind tunnel will be used for finding the aerodynamic coefficients, which can then be applied to the plant model of the control system for the UAV that will be under development. The other focus will be on implementation of the plant model and wind tunnel testing to actual controllers.

P09231 Airframe A The Airframe A team will provide the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle family with a fleet of small, inexpensive, robust aircraft to be used in the design, testing, and iteration processes of all other sub-projects. All vehicles will be rooted in the Aero Design Team Laboratory Airframe, to ensure inherent flight viability and solid foundations for improvement. The team will engineer in accordance with the code of ethics while continually moving towards a new generation aircraft to be used in subsequent years by all interested parties. The team will endeavor to provide logistical contingencies in an effort to make a flying test bed available to other sub-projects at all times. Matt Greco
