Introduction
Team Structure
Supervised by Dr. C.K. Chan from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, HKU Design, Build & Fly (DBF) Team is formed by over 25 students majoring in Mechanical Engineering. Due to the regulations of the AIAA and BMFA, an expert in flying and constructing a RC model aircraft is also necessary in the team. The role of pilot and advisor will be taken by him. With the lead by the team captain, the team separates into sub teams responsible for different main parameters of an aircraft, such as fuselage, wing, empennage, and internal mechanisms.
