UAV Drone Prototype Workshop 2024: Avionics Component Integration Malaysia MADANI
Dear connections,
on the 14th and 15th December, the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Students' Association (MAESA) under the Drone Club, in collaboration with Kelab Remaja Udara Malaysia (KRUM) have successfully organised this workshop for school students, sponsored by Suruhanjaya Kebangsaan UNESCO Malaysia (SKUM). A total of 60 students from 11 schools comprises of 5 different states have participated in this event. This programme focuses on delivering knowledge about Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) aerodynamics and avionics integration to school students. The programme aims to teach about the basic fundamentals on fixed wing UAV application.
Avionics plays a key role for UAV application in global industries. As part of the mission in the Malaysia Aerospace Industry Blueprint 2030 (MAIB 2030), to enhance unmanned mobility technologies , the implementation on both structures and avionics helps the students to learn and appreciate electronics usage on flight controls (i.e. rudders, elevators, ailerons). These basic fundamentals will develop a creative thinking for the students to design their own avionics model on a prototype.
Session includes:
Session 1: Introduction to Flight and Drones✈️
Session 2: Introduction to Avionics💡
Session 3: Demonstration and Simulation Tour🖥
Session 4: Practical Prototyping Workshop🔧
Session 5: Flight Test🛫
Six months preparation have developed the confidence of the facilitators. for delivering and contributing the knowledge to the students. A module was given to the students by groups together with their respective prototype kits. During the practical session, the students participated actively by engaging with the facilitators for further understanding.
Most importantly, the students can built their own UAV.
As the leading director of the program, a huge thanks to the facilitators and committees for making this wonderful program a success. I would like to express my gratitude to Dr Nur Azam Abdullah , Dr Muhammad Hanafi Azami , Dr Amelda Dianne, Dr. Hanan Mokhtar and Dr WAN LUQMAN HAKIM WAN A HAMID for assisting the facilitators from the preparation till the end of the program.
Not to forget, a huge appreciation to Ts. Nor Azrin Nor Azman from National Aerospace Industry Corporation Malaysia (NAICO Malaysia) and En. Ahmad Faiz from Jabatan Pendidikan Negeri Selangor for attending and launch our program together with the Dean of Kulliyyah of Engineering, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Khairul Azami Sidek. We ought to contribute and share more about technologies to the society in the future.
