UAV Challenge – 2019 Airborne Delivery Challenge
October 12, 2019 @ 8:00 am - October 13, 2019 @ 5:00 pm
The Robotics and Autonomous Systems Group at CSIRO’s Data61 and QUT are pleased to announce the launch of the 2019 Airborne Delivery Challenge, which will take place on Saturday 12th and Sunday 13th October 2019 at Calvert Radio Aero Modellers Society flying field, Bourke’s Road West, Calvert, Queensland, Australia.
This year’s competition maintains the same mission as last year – saving Outback Joe from a medical emergency, but there are a few exciting changes. The most significant one for teams is that instead of monetary prizes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize winners, this year, all teams that qualify and attend the event will receive AUD$500 to help with expenses. The organisers understand that travelling can be expensive.
The Technical Committee has released new rules for this year’s event, with a new simplified format.
Registration is now open. Please register if you are interested in competing and we can then stay in touch and email you when we have news.
