Decisions made by group /Discussion Topics:
We have decided that decisions are made as a group, not just by a single person because we know that as a team we will be more successful. We didn’t assign specific roles to this project because we all want take part in each process during this project. Every team member will have a different role every meeting. Some topics discussed today were the weight distribution of the AEV, number of propellers used, and how the speed of the AEV will be affected throughout its entire path.
