• December 13th Weve had two more sucessful test flights as the semester has come to an end. Our aircraft has sucessfully navigated GPS waypoints and delivered video and in-flight data at over 200m up! We have begun autonomous take-off tests and are working on tweaking already sucessful attempts. Check back soon for pictures.
  
  
• November 23rd Two Successful test flights this week: Relative and absolute GPS waypoint navigation while maintaining altitude is working great. We were also able to test our failsafe safety mode and video telemetry system. Check the media section for pictures of the test flights.

Cornell University UAV team is a group of undergraduate engineering students who work together to design, construct, test and eventually fly an autonomous fixed wing aircraft in AUVSI's International Student Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Competition . The competition was first held in the summer of 2002 at Webster field in Maryland and Cornell came home with first place. The plane must complete a series of tasks including way point navigation via autonomous flight, target identification, and much more. This year will mark the third year of a quickly growing competition that we are very excited to be a part of.
