Skyris
2020
It was our final model entry for SAE international aero design east 2020 regular class competition. In
our quest to achieve higher score with lesser wingspan, we went on to design a new and final
prototype model. It is one of our innovative designs which featured in our first international venture.
Key features of the model includes
-
Low-Wing Configuration
-
Conventional Tail Boom for weight reduction
-
Easier Loading unloading of payload
-
Modular architecture for easier replacement and transit
-
Higher Maneuverability due to higher control stability of low wing
-
Upsweep angles on fuselage to decrease vortex shedding.
During Flight rounds Skyris was able to lift a total payload weight of 6.5 kg. Team secured 1st rank in technical presentations worldwide with 14th overall ranking and 3rd ranking in Asia in the very first international venture of the team.
