SAE Aero Design Competition

Better known by club members as the "Heavylift Plane", this competition requires teams to build, gas powered, R/C aircrafts that can lift as much payload mass as possible into stable flight.  The competition is sponsored by SAE International and Lockheed Martin, SAE International is separate from AIAA so competition participants would need to be national members of SAE.

This year's team members are:
David Flanders
Team Captain
Shatra Reehal
