IMechE UAS Challenge

Team Foxtrot has been competing in the IMechE UAS Challenge in the United Kingdom (UK) for the last four years (2019-2022). The competition is focused on which team can create the best-automated UAV. The challenge is divided into two parts: the tasks performed during the actual flight - such as aid package delivery, speed trial, and endurance - and technical documentation. Both phases have hefty points, and the team with the most aggregate points wins the challenge. Aside from winning the challenge, numerous awards are presented to deserving teams for standing out in certain aspects such as safety, design, airworthiness, business proposition, etc.
