Paper ID #26398Conversion of a Prime Mover: One-third Scale Model-T from Gasoline toElectric PowerDr. John M. Mativo, University of Georgia Dr. John Mativo is Associate Professor at the University of Georgia. His research interest lies in two fields. The first is research focusing on best and effective ways to teaching and learning in STEM K- 16. He is currently researching on best practices in learning Dynamics, a sophomore engineering core course. The second research focus of Dr. Mativo is energy harvesting in particular the design and use of flexible thermoelectric generators. His investigation is both for the high-tech
experience, and weather. This year theMCC Drone Design Team is made up of 12 students, including 4 returning members and 8 true freshman. As acommunity college design team, one of our main constraints is the student graduation rate. Students graduate atdouble the rate compared to a 4 year institution, forcing team leaders to quickly educate and prepare freshman stu-dents for competition. A limited budget is also a constraining factor that most teams face when creating a new sys-tem. Our team developed the BFL system with parts from legacy systems, $3800 from internal university sources,and 3 business sponsorships. Without these resources, our team would not have been able to create this new systemand sustain the AUVSI-SUAS design team. One
