Who We Are
Who We Are
Each year, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) holds a student RC aircraft contest called Design-Build-Fly (DBF)
We are CU Boulder's DBF team.
What We Do
What We Do
We design an RC aircraft from scratch to best accomplish the missions that AIAA outlines in the rules.
The team then attends and competes in the competition during April in Wichita or Tuscon.
We accomplish this by splitting the work up into multiple subteams. Read about these below!
