Pilotless aircraft
Pilotless aircraft
(OP)
I am interested in developing pilotless aircraft for small (<50kg) instrument/surveillance package or delivering items at a distance. Familiar with the experimental aircraft scene and computers, able to program. Are there active development projects in this area?
RE: Pilotless aircraft
My employer, Alliant Techsystems, recently completed development of a remotely piloted vehicle with similar specifications. Email me at Mike_VanVoorhis@ATK.com for more information.
The aircraft, Outrider, was developed for military use. It is capable of loitering for several hours, uses a gasoline powerplant and contains numerous sensors for survellance operations.
