Tiltrotor

The primary goal of this project was to design and fabricate an unmanned tiltrotor aircraft capable of taking off and landing vertically as well as flying using its wings for lift. The aircraft was completely designed and built by undergraduates, and this project will advance YUAA’s knowledge and experience with RC airplanes and rotorcraft. At the conclusion of the year, the tiltrotor was ready for vertical flight testing, and it had been demonstrated that the aircraft could output significantly greater thrust than its own weight.

Three Stage Rocket

The Advanced Rocket Project developed a three-stage rocket from the ground up to increase the capabilities of the Yale Undergraduate Aerospace Association (YUAA) in the field of rocketry. This rocket was fully student-designed and constructed, and will serve as a foundation for future YUAA multistage rocket development.
