This course in Small Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (sUAS) design, assembly, and maintenance introduces students to the operations of UASs. Content includes design and assembly of airframe, power plant, autopilot, ground control stations, payloads, and mission analysis. Students will build a small rotary wing aircraft and program the computer flight controller. They will also build a delta winged aircraft and finally build and aircraft with an autopilot and fly a mission with the aircraft using mission planner software. Students will fly both fixed wing and rotary winged aircraft that they build in this course. 4 CR. Prerequisite: UAS 210
