SolarCopter Team after being announced as the best MEng Project Group at the Industrial Liaison Forum
The SolarCopter Team, after being announced as the best MEng Project Group at the Industrial Liaison Forum, have now been featured on gizmag. The article talks about the process the students have been through and has already got some debate going.
“The Solarcopter was inspired from the love of flight, and the urge to do something different for the aviation industry,” the Queen Mary students told Gizmag. “When the realization came that there were no solar powered helicopters in existence, it seemed like a great engineering challenge to take on.”
