"On takeoff, everyone is holding their breath," he said.
"After it makes that first lap everyone is cheering. About. No. "Having all these setbacks (and then) at the very end (it) flies perfectly at full speed, it's incredibly satisfying. "Matthew Bajamundi, a junior studying aerospace engineering, joined the club his freshman year because he has always been interested in Bajamundi said the club has given him great real-world experience for what he wants to do when he graduates from ASU.Bajamundi said this year, the club has been different for him than others.After spending the last two years with other members of the club, including Thomas, they were finally able to take on the project of building the plane without help from older students, which Bajamundi said he was very proud of. "The people who are really dedicated to this process end up essentially living in our workshop," he said.

Air Devils is an aerospace engineering club that develops and builds remote-controlled aircrafts. A dedicated Remote Controlled Aircraft competition team hosted by the Ira A Futlon School of Engineering. New members learn skills that they will learn in later classes such as solid modeling in Solidworks, solid mechanics, and aerodynamics, allowing them to approach those classes with already a practical understanding. All rights reserved. On April 15, Air Force students crossed a digital threshold by logging in to a new, custom Squadron Officer School portal made possible by an innovative collaboration. Their competitive goal is to be one of the top ten international teams, and the overall goal of the club is to allow students to get hands on engineering experience, develop professional networks, and provide opportunities to get involved with the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering.Members of Air Devils have also attended almost every single outreach opportunity throughout the year, in an effort to recruit further talent and share the dream of flight with children in the community. With Raytheon as sponsors and Dr. Timothy Takahashi’s experience, students are provided opportunities to grow their network and meet industry professionals.
The team competes in the Design Build Fly (DBF) competition hosted by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). Every year, new engineering freshmen with have the opportunity to experience first-hand and solve real engineering problems. Air Devils. "That model crashes into a cactus, and then you build the next version and that crashes into a cactus," he said. "It's been really hectic for the whole season, but now we have our final design built and it flew really well," he said.
Within the ASA, the Fulton Undergraduate Student Engagement group supports Fulton Schools Student Orgs. They placed 14th overall in 2016, which has been the club's best finish so far. "Walter Bonar, a junior studying aerospace engineering and treasurer of the club, joined when he saw a table at the engineering As treasurer, Bonar buys all the supplies and equipment needed to make the remote-controlled planes and is also in charge of the structural analysis of the aircraft during the building.Bonar said the average aircraft costs about $1,000, but including After all the time and money spent on the craft, seeing it finally take off is a very gratifying feeling, Bonar said.
Air Devils is a competitive aeronautical ESO that competes yearly in the AIAA Design Build Fly competition, which alternates between Wichita, KS and Tucson, AZ.
"To see the fruits of our labor get up there and land at the end is such a great experience.
