Wing Investigation
Wing Investigation aims to determine the effect of wing shape and materials on thrust generation through data collection. This team aims to find what combination of wing shape, size, and material best suits the needs of a specific subteam. Additionally, they provide support by creating replacement wings for other subteams.
2026-2027 Goals:
-
Tests materials outside of mylar
-
Test ribbed and manufactured ribbed wings
-
Attempt to design wings based on nature and nature inspired structures
More About Wing Investigation
Wing Investigation was originally a side project amongst four FWMAV members from different subteams. While progress depended on how busy those members were with their subteams, some initial findings were discovered. This peaked the teams interest and lead to a subteam focused on just testing wings.
