The Simulation to Flight Applied Research (S2FAR) Laboratory is located at Oklahoma State University's Tulsa campus in the Helmerich Research Center. Conveniently located near downtown Tulsa, OSU-Tulsa connects academia with industry partnerships in the region.
The S2FAR Lab performs research involving the rapid development of subscale unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). As the name suggests, the lab specializes in taking a vehicle concept and going from simulation to flight. Subscale UAVs can be used for a multitude of purposes, including flight control law development, guidance and navigation, aerodynamic validation, atmospheric measurements, swarm technology, and aero-propulsive interaction testing. Full-scale vehicle concepts can also make use of subscale vehicles as Risk Reduction Test Vehicles (RRTVs). S2FAR works with multi-rotor, fixed-wing, vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), and rotorcraft vehicle configurations.
