2.3 Mechanical and Electrical Design Requirements
The flow-down of requirements within the project have been delegated between the five primary
sub-teams. Based on the needs of the project the primary sub-teams selected have been
aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, missions, and avionics. Figure 7 below schematically
illustrates the major requirements to be fulfilled by each sub-team. These requirements will be
highlighted in detail in each subsystem’s design-to specifications.

2.4 Overall System
2.4.1 Solid Model and Mass Breakdown
The overall design of the CUDBF aircraft can be observed in Figure 8 and Figure 9 below.
Figure 8 shows the aircraft transparent view in order to clearly show each subsystem and
component integration and placement in the aircraft. Figure 9 below shows a classic three-view
of the CUDBF aircraft with important dimensions highlighted. The integration and installation
of each component will be highlighted later in this report.
