18 Battery Analysis

19 Risk Assessment Battery Capacity not sufficient for application Cell Failure may lead to insufficient or no voltage Recharging battery may reduce battery performance

20 Future Work: Propulsions Wind Tunnel Testing Determine Dynamic Thrust Curve Static Endurance Test Determine Component Compatibility

21 Future Work: Aerodynamics and Control/Stability Implement CFD on current model Ensure minimal drag Develop mission model for each phase of flight Predict forces, moments, aircraft state Implement AVL/XFLR analysis Simulate aircraft during phases of flight Ensure empennage optimality. Appropriately size wing and tail control surfaces.

22 Future Work: Programming Visual Studio 2010 Previous experience with the software Easily accessible (free of charge) Handles both C and C++ C language Most familiar Most common used language for servo programming

23 Future Work: Programming Items in possession LPR510AL Dual-Axis (Pitch and Roll or XY) Gyro with ±100°/s and ±400°/s Rangers Micro Maestro 6-Channel USB Servo Controller Risk analysis Debugging Thorough possibilities evaluation
