Novel UAV Concept 1

[WKTaylor]

The FAA, maintenance schools and societies, the DoD, colleges and universities and small-to-large companies are moving heavily into UAV domain. UAVs have become the future-wave... and imaginations are soaring.

Here is a [another!] novel UAV concept by a US small company. If anything it is sure fun to watch the demo!

The good engineer does not need to memorize every formula; he just needs to know where he can find them when he needs them. Old professor
