The UAS is designed so that it is modular – with the exception of the fuselage andthe integrated mid-section of the wing, all other components can be switched out, including theempennage, the wing section(s) and its geometry (for instance, dihederal can be introduced orremoved through special dihedral pin inserts). The specifications and pictures of the SharpshooterUAS are listed below in in Table 2. The UAS in Figure 1 has been flown a number of times and

theprinciples of electrostatic propulsion, a different device known as an electrospray thruster may beused instead. Electrospray thrusters are significantly simpler to make and, although the operationis somewhat different to gridded ion and Hall thrusters, the basic principles of electrostaticpropulsion can be accurately demonstrated with the electrospray system.Electrospray thrusters are not a new technology, being first developed in the 1960’s [1]. Initiallythey were not popular due to low thrust levels and high voltages required. The emergence ofmicro- and nano- satellite technologies has seen a resurgence in interest in electrospray systemsas there are more avenues for their use and improvements in technology have dropped therequired voltages [2,3

project-based learning that we use is based on problem-based learning. Each project has oneor more problems that need to be solved and often these problems can be broken down to smallerproblems that each team can address. These problems are centered around the goal(s) of eachproject. For example, a competition project may need to build a rocket that exactly reaches 5,280feet. This problem can be broken down to smaller problems such as the size of the motor, weightof the rocket, and other problems that contribute to the goal of obtaining that altitude.The projects we have involve multiple disciplines and multiple problems to be solved.

These satelliteprograms could span 1-2 academic years, with cadet teams of roughly 20-40 participating for upto 2 years (junior and senior years).
