Aim | The students develop and manufacture a flying object completely assembled of steel components. This work is conducted on schedule and under a fixed budget. Within this project, the students learn to use steel as lightweight material. |
Course | After the handover of the task and the set of rules, the students work independently in teams of up to four students. First, in the concept phase possible variants of the flight model have to be developed and evaluated. As part of an interim presentation, the concepts are presented and discussed with the assistant. Next follows the fabrication and optimization of the flying objects. Within a flight competition, the students will compete against colleagues from different universities from Germany. Finally the students summarize their results in an elaboration and recite them in a presentation. |
