    Aircraft Design Group


    This is an interdisciplinary group comprising of faculty drawn from the three specialist groups: Aerodynamics & Flight Mechanics group, Structures group and Propulsion group. The main activity is coordinating design, fabrication and flying of airplanes. A regular activity is the design and fabrication of UAVs by our graduate students as part of the Dual Degree and M.Tech. curricula. Some videos here:
