Autonomous soaring drone
Published on Sep 5, 2014
RMIT UAS Research team successfully completes preliminary flight testing of its autonomous soaring Micro-Air-Vehicle.
The airframe (Alula) was kindly donated by Dream-Flight for Research purposes. It was instrumented with an autopilot programmed to autonomously slope soar.
This research was made possible, in part, through support and funding from the Defence Science Institute and the Defence Science and Technology Organisation.
