Launch Rail Testing
Verifying launch rail performance ahead of the first flight test of Everloft 1. The rail system is designed to provide consistent, repeatable launches for our solar UAV.

Everloft 1: First Flight
The culmination of months of design, build, and simulation work — Everloft 1 prepares for its maiden flight.
Documentation
We document the engineering behind every decision — from aerodynamic optimization and structural analysis to system-in-the-loop control simulations. Explore the technical depth behind Project Everloft.
View DocumentationPrimary Design Decisions
Before starting design optimization, we defined the most important design parameters and constraints. These decisions ensured that the goals set for Everloft 1 were achievable while keeping cost and prototyping time low.

Prototype Design
To prove that we could build an unstable UAV, we set out to design a cost-effective testbed that could be rapidly designed, built, and tested. The primary focus was testing stabilization around the pitch axis...
