Aquila is intended to fly at altitudes of up to 90,000 feet (27,000 m) during the day, [1] dropping to 60,000 feet (18,000 m) at night, with an endurance of up to three months, providing Internet service to a 50 miles (80 km)-radius area below its flight path; [3] if communications spectrum was assigned for the project, it would allow the 66% ...
The Boeing Bird of Prey is an American black project aircraft, intended to demonstrate stealth technology.It was developed by McDonnell Douglas and Boeing in the 1990s. [1] The company provided $67 million of funding for the project; [1] it was a low-cost program compared to many other programs of similar scale.
The name Trello is derived from the word trellis, which had been a code name for the project at its early stages. [10] Trello was released at a TechCrunch event by Fog Creek founder Joel Spolsky. [11] In September 2011 Wired magazine named the application one of "The 7 Coolest Startups You Haven't Heard of Yet". [12] Lifehacker said "it makes ...
The free software approach to ArduPilot code development is similar to that of the Linux Operating system and the GNU Project, and the PX4/Pixhawk and Paparazzi Project, where low cost and availability enabled hobbyists to build autonomous small remotely piloted aircraft, such as micro air vehicles and miniature UAVs. The drone industry ...
LibrePilot is [2] a Free software unmanned aerial vehicle project for model aircraft aimed at supporting both multi-rotor craft as well as fixed-wing aircraft. Initially founded by David Ankers, Angus Peart and Vassilis Varveropoulos in late 2009, under the name OpenPilot, it was conceived as both a learning tool and to address areas the developers perceived were lacking in other small UAV ...
Friends and relatives later helped him in his project. [2] Millions of pesos and at least six years has been spent for the development of the aircraft. [4] Mendiola has named "disappointment, mocking and discouraging words" as a hindrance to the development of the Millenya. [2] He intends the vehicle to be similar to a sports car; a "flying ...
The left laminar flow wing section. Natural laminar flow is opposed to hybrid laminar flow artificially induced through hardware. It is difficult to industrialise a wing smooth enough to sustain the laminar flow in operation, due to having very low design and manufacturing tolerances, leading-edge retractable slats, and fasteners, that is aerodynamically robust enough, and can withstand ...
FlightGear Flight Simulator (often shortened to FlightGear or FGFS) is a free, open source multi-platform flight simulator developed by the FlightGear project since 1997. [4] David Murr started this project on April 8, 1996. This project had its first release in 1997 and continued in development.
