How It All Took Off.
How It All Took Off.
Club was founded and research was started.
First Aircraft was built after crashes.
Took part in ADC 2019 Micro category and were second nationally.
Built another fixed wing and won best techbical presentation.
Built a 3d printed fuselage.
Took part in SUAS 2019.
Were 35th Internationally and built the CF fuselage and wing.
Corona affected the competiton
Took part in ADC 2021 and built micro and regular class aircraft.
Were the National champions in it.
One more step ahead started to build and jump in category of multirotor.
Design Started for SUAS 2022.
Built a prototype of Octacopter weiging 22 kgs.
Took part and optimized the design of copter and ranked 14th internationally.
Built gimbal system for ODLC and model training.
Took part in Aerothon 2022 and placed 12th nationally for the first phase.
First micro category UAV was built.
Took part in ADC micro and regular.
Were 2nd nationally in micro.
Started preparation for SUAS 2023
Built a Quadcopter weighing 20 kg
Enhanced efficiency by optimizing the motor, achieving a speed of 10 m/s
Ranked 5th internationally and 1st nationally in the competition
Participated in Aerothon and constructed a cost-effective frame for the drone
Introduced a new solid-state Li-ion battery chemistry, reducing battery weight and size by 15% and
increasing flight time by 35%
Took part in ADC micro and regular class
Made crank dihedral wing for more stability
Made circular fuselage for better airflow and drag reduction
CFD and all analysis comes into picture to analyse our design before manufacturing
Took part in SUAS in 2024 and optimised the mechanical frame used in 2023, achieving a global rank
of 3rd.
Implemented new carbon fiber (CF) molded rods, which reduced the number of joints and consequently
minimized vibration.
Reduced overall frame weight from 20 kg to just 16 kg.
Enhanced flight time to 50 minutes.
Simultaneously participated in Aerothon 2024 and secured 9th place nationally in Phase 1.
Took part in DDC 2024 micro and regular class
Micro class featured weight optimization to increase the payload-to-total weight ratio and
incorporated new high strength-to-weight ratio materials
Used a dorsal fin for improved stability
Used a rectangular fuselage as the circular fuselage was difficult to manufacture
Introduced suspension in the landing gear for the first time to absorb shock during landing
Used H-tail empennage for better lateral (yaw) stability
Ranked 2nd nationally in micro class and 4th nationally in regular class
Ranked 1st nationally in Aerothon 2024
Used generative design arms for the drone, reducing frame weight to 350 grams
Implemented a newly customized solid-state battery
Registered for SUAS 2025
Took part in DDC micro and regular class 2025
Enhanced the structural integrity of the wing in micro class to withstand crashes
Increased the payload-to-weight ratio to the highest in the competition's history
Used tungsten carbide to reduce the volume of the payload
Introduced precise calculation of yaw, roll, and pitching moments
Converted to a conventional tail to improve maneuverability compared to an H-tail
Introduced a payload drop mechanism
Built an 8 kg drone for SUAS, optimized for ease of transport
Drone fits in an 18”x14”x8” box and uses 100Wh batteries
Achieved a historical speed of 25 m/s
Ranked 1st nationally in regular class and 2nd in micro class
Registered for Aerothon 2025
