Over the last two weeks, GGC
has hosted the Carleton University “Blackbird” UAV team as they have been
preparing their fixed wing and rotary wing UAVs for the national student
competition in Alma, QC on April 28-30, 2017. Check out the links below:
Started in 2009, the Blackbird UAV Team was
created to provide students at Carleton University with an opportunity to apply
the knowledge they have gained through their coursework by giving students
hands on experience in the design, construction and implementation of an
unmanned aircraft and its systems. Approximately 30 undergraduate and graduate
students have been involved in the development of the Team’s entry into this
year’s Unmanned Systems Canada Student UAS Competition.
As an
extra-curricular project, the Blackbird UAV Team has relied on the generous
support of multiple organizations on and off campus.
GGC is proud to support the Carleton Blackbird
team again in 2017 by providing the team a flight test location and we wish
them the best of luck at the upcoming competition!
