In the education of the Department of Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering, experience-based education programs seem to be emphasized to understand the relationship between various conventional theories and actual phenomena. They are rarely associated with a single theory alone, but can often be related to the integration of multiple theories. Therefore, we have classes at both Nagoya and Gifu Universities, respectively focusing on the design, production, and evaluation of flying robots or autonomous gliders. In the previous report, the educational impact of the collaborative efforts between these two universities was discussed, especially the educational effects on the first joint competition held in September 2021. In this paper, we report the changes introduced in the second joint competition held in September 2022 and examine the improvement effects of the joint competition based on the results of the actual competition and the participating studentsʼ surveys. It was confirmed that the competition records significantly improved compared to the previous event, and studentsʼ motivations have continued to improve.
