Module where a company of 100 students are provided with a set of requirements and tasked to design a UAV. Company was split into smaller subcategories, each team working on a different part of the UAV. My group was in charge of the design and manufacturing of the vertical tailplane. I specialised in the structural design, which consisted of sizing the tailplane and choosing materials suitable for the conditions of flight.
