About Me:
Aeromechanical Design Engineer focused on low cost, delivery capable air-frames with a 200+ km range. I've also developed a few of my own surveillance platforms thus far, with focus on VTOL technologies and rapid deployment systems. PM me, I love discussing aircraft design and applications.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
