The goal of this project is to asses the
feasibility of a disk/ rotor aircraft through
research, experimentation and design.
Asses the feasibility of the aircraft by:
-PIV testing to investigate the flow
patterns during take off and landing
-Examining the interactions between the
disk and fuselage
-Define dynamics during flight and hover
