Here are two news stories from the training exercise I helped conduct last week in south Texas. We were training the Texas A&M personnel on how to operate as the ground crew for the UAV system they purchased last year. They did a great job and it was fun week working with them all week despite the colder than normal…See More

"@ Micah Roe...The base helicopter is a T-Rex 450...I then modified a bunch of parts and created my own canopy for it.
@Ray K...This is a helicopter I designed about 5 years ago for a company called Adaptive Flight. It is…"

"Very cool.
I'm very interested in the helicopter. Is there a link to that build?"

Skydog222 commented on Skydog222's blog post Drones in the news"Hi Garry,
I remember that demo very well. It was the last time that I flew Hornets at Webster Field (sad they took away the live demo portion of the conference). We measured wind gusts of 21mph on the ground that day while I was…"
Garry Qualls commented on Skydog222's blog post Drones in the news"I was just telling some of my summer students about seeing some of the smallest Adaptive Flight copters fly a couple of years ago, at the AUVSI demo day at Webster Field. It was gusty enough that day that I assumed the little ones would…"
Skydog222 commented on Skydog222's blog post Drones in the news"Hi Martin,
You are correct. The system flown for the demonstration started as a T-Rex 450. I then designed new lower side frames, lower plate, landing gear, and canopy. There were a few other modifications required…"

Skydog222 commented on Skydog222's blog post Drones in the news"Hi Jack,
Thanks for reading this post.
I agree with you that the video quality shown on the air was certainly not on par with our normal video quality and was actually quite horrible. This was in no part due to our video…"
Martin commented on Skydog222's blog post Drones in the news"Looks like an Align 450 with a body kit. What a piece of Junk. If you watched the video. One drone is tetherd, The other a 22 lb heli and a Reaper. The digital system weighs as much as the whole heli itself. CNN is so not the place to…"
Jack Crossfire commented on Skydog222's blog post Drones in the news"That's normal picture quality for 1990's era 2.4Ghz video in an environment with lots of computers. Can't believe he's still not showing digital video & indoor autopilot, like the unemployed masses have been putting him…"

Adaptive Flight was contacted by CNN and ask to bring a UAV down to the studio and fly it on live camera while talking about it with the host Don Lemon. So we took a Hornet Micro and headed down to the studio. It was a lot of fun to show off this technology and put in a positive plug for domestic use of UAV's.…
