    Thank you, Chris. That may have been obvious to some...I was only familiar with the name.
  • X-craft was incorporated in 2010, its a New Zealand company that develops and operates a whole range of UAVs in a wide variety of roles, for a wide range of customers. It has absolutely no links to xCraft of Ohio (2014) who develop the tail sitter, other than a similar name. 

  • Yeah not same company but same owners...

    Obviously?

  • Let's not be too hard on them.  It's a valiant effort, and a good cause.

  • Obviously not the same company :) 

  • from their website:

    X-craft has a special company mandate for environmental and humanitarian missions. X-craft is the architect of the Rescue Robotics project, a system that brings rapid response to any Emergency Event.
