Previous Designs
For both the Preliminary Research and Design along with the Advanced Research and Design the AEV design that had to be built was used. After completing all the trials that were needed for data a new design was created.
Design created on Solid Works to show what was used for the beginning trials.
Beginning of P R&D
While in the Preliminary Reseach and Design each member created a design that they felt like would do very good.
Design A:
Design B:
Design C:
Design D:
After all the designs were looked at the team created a concept sketch of what they wanted the AEV to look like in the end.
Team Concept Sketch:
After completing all the design sketches it was determined that the designs that were going to be tested were designs C and D because they had the best concept screening and scoring scores.
After A R&D
Once all the testing was done and data was collected a new design was created for the performance tests that had to be completed. In Solid Works the ideas of what we wanted our AEV to look like was created.
Design A:
For this design both of the propellers were on the same side of the AEV.
Design B:
In this design the propellors were on opposite sides of the AEV.
Perfomance Tests
For the performance test using the two different propellors were tested but determined that the larger ones worked better and that the smaller ones would need a lot of energy to push the AEV forward.
Testing:
