We are excited to announce that we have two new team sponsors for the year: MotoCalc and Scorpion Power Systems! Both of these companies graciously gave us free/reduced price products to help us reach #1!
MotoCalc is a comprehensive, accurate, versatile, and easy to use program for choosing and optimizing electric model airplane power systems. It'll tell you everything you need to know: Amps, Volts, Watts, RPM, Thrust, Rate of Climb, and much more. Check them out here: http://motocalc.com/
Scorpion Power Systems manufactures the brushless motors we use almost every year in our aircraft. Check them out here: https://www.scorpionsystem.com/
If you or your company are interested in sponsoring the team (and having your brand seen by hundreds of engineering students), send us a message!
