Abstract
This paper summarizes the Phase I Airframe Development of an undergraduate research project for the Raptor 90 remote-controlled helicopter. The purpose of the project is to introduce the fundamentals of dynamics and control for rotorcraft to undergraduate engineers interested in control system theory. Follow on research for the Raptor 90 will include instrumentation and flight-testing for data collection. Controller development will be investigated using a dynamic model simulation of the Raptor 90 helicopter.
