We are sorry to announce that due to the Covid-19 situation the 2020 IMechE UAS Challenge fly-off event has been cancelled. We would like to thank our sponsors for their support throughout the process and I hope that everyone can look forward to Team Hawk 2021 competing again next year.

We will be uploading a video in the next few days with some of our prototyping and what we managed to achieve in our builds.

Stay safe and see you next year!
