The Team

We are the "UBI Aeronautics Team" composed of students specializing in Aeronautical Engineering from the Universidade da Beira Interior. Our team is dedicated to participating in the upcoming "Air Cargo Challenge", slated for Aachen in 2024.

Our team operates through a structured framework of 6 subsystems, each focusing on distinct aspects of project implementation. Each subsystem is led by a coordinator responsible for managing operations and providing comprehensive reports to the team leader. Additionally, we are actively seeking an experienced pilot to conduct rigorous testing of our UAVs and to pilot them during the competition.

Our mission extends beyond competition participation; we strive to advance aeronautical knowledge and innovation, contributing positively to both academic discourse and public awareness of aerospace technologies.
