Flight #18 - Ascent AeroSystems’s Spirit UAV and the Blue sUAS List
Manage episode 337065104 series 3292112
This week we talk about the unique looking Spirit drone by Ascent AeroSystems, which is hard to describe and define. To help us, we invited Bobby Sakaki from Ascent AeroSystems on the show to discuss the Spirit, which was added to the Blue UAS list in June . We cover the aircraft in detail, including why it was designed the way it was, who could use the Spirit to its maximum potential, alongside many tangents about the drone industry as a whole.
