Melbourne UAVs Outback Challenge documentary

Joe, Ian and Scott

An eventful drive to the Outback Challenge for Scott and Ian, sadly there troubles continued and the were not able to fly in this years competition. Joe’s just going to have to keep waiting. In their own words.

Melbourne UAV  is once again entering the Open Search and Rescue challenge section of the 2011 Australian Outback UAV Challenge.

After getting very close in 2009 and not so close in 2010 we just had to come back!

The location for the 2011 Challenge is yet to be announced but there is a rumour that it could be interstate this year, hopefully in Victoria !

That would be great, we might have to attend if only for the VB.
