Finally!

A few weekends ago, we did our deployment flight test. After 7 months, 4000+ man hours, and countless internet meme jokes....it all paid off!

The Miniature Aircraft Deployment System works. It works!

We hit some snafus, and weren't able to deploy all four, including our autopilot-enabled plane. However, we think we know where the problem lies, and it is great to see this project a success. The project received lots of attention from within and outside of the university, and it feels good to get recognized for our hard work. It's not over, though, and it's back to work after Spring Break!
