Help Us Take Flight – Support UTA’s Design Build Fly Team!

We are a group of passionate students at UTA with a bold mission: to design, build, and fly a cutting-edge aircraft that will compete in the 2026 AIAA Design Build Fly competition and continue competing for years to come. To make this dream a reality, we need your help! We are seeking funds for essential parts, tools, books, and travel expenses for testing and the competition.

This project is more than just a competition – it’s an opportunity for all of us to apply what we’re learning in the classroom to real-world engineering challenges. We’ll gain hands-on experience in aerodynamics, materials, fabrication, and teamwork – skills that will help us excel in our future careers. By supporting us, you're helping the next generation of aerospace engineers gain the skills and experience needed to shape the future of flight.

Competing in the Design Build Fly competition is a unique and exciting challenge that pushes us to innovate, collaborate, and think creatively. The funds you provide will allow us to build and test our aircraft, ensuring that we can compete at the highest level and represent UTA with pride.

This is an opportunity to be part of something truly exciting and impactful. Your donation will help students like us take to the skies, learn from our experiences, and continue to compete for years to come. Together, we can build something extraordinary!
