February 19, 2021: The Indian Army is purchasing $20 million worth of Switch VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) UAVs from Ideaforge, an Indian firm that needs the sale to stay in business. Ideaforge was founded in 2007 to develop and manufacture commercial quad-copter and other lightweight commercial UAVs. From the beginning the idea was to sell to the Indian government, which has a very aggressive “buy Indian” policy and will pay more for Indian made items than comparable or superior foreign-made models. The Switch UAV is a good example. It is a 6.5 kg (14.3 pound) battery powered UAV that looks like a fixed wing UAV with four propellers. It has VSTOL capability because the four propellers can switch between two modes; one for propelling the UAV like a conventional fixed wing aircraft, and the other to perform like a quadcopter. Switch has endurance of 120 minutes and can operate up to 15 kilometers (line of sight) from the operator
The crew behind a prototype flying racing-car have been criticised for not meeting standards after the craft went out of control and soared 8,000ft up into a flight path for Gatwick airport before crashing back to earth, a report has revealed.
The unmanned craft was on a low-level demonstration flight when its 22-year-old remote pilot who was flying it from the ground suddenly found it no longer responded to his remote controls just a minute after take off.
A spotter who was part of the ground crew tried to use a kill switch in a laptop to cut off power to the four rotors of the Airspeeder Mk2 car on the morning of July 4, 2019.
