Boeing released their UCAV Unmanned Cargo Air Vehicle video this week, (UCAV used to mean Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle, but anyway) They are happy with three months of work to create their HobbyKing Beerlift 2018 entry. I received a little flack for saying that. I would hope Boeing with all their money could make a platform like this in a week! Anyhow, well done Philip Rowse they are using his Cube autopilot in the video. http://www.proficnc.com/system-kits/71-pixhawk2-suite.html Mission planner is on the screen, thumbs up to Michael Oborne, Ardupilot FTW! But wait, dear viewer, you can fly the same flight stack as Boeing in simulation using Mission Planner, X-Plane and a few other fiddly bits. The purpose of this video was to try a setup for Jamie Bignell and his studies.
