The engineering team will design, develop, and ground-test a hybrid electric engine tailored for a future heavy-lift Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This project will focus on creating a propulsion system that combines the efficiency of electric power with the extended range and power density of traditional fuel engines, optimizing it for heavy-lift capabilities.
The team will design a scalable hybrid powertrain integrating electric motors and internal combustion engines. The project will also involve developing control systems, energy management strategies, and thermal management solutions to ensure reliable and efficient operation during high-demand scenarios. The team will build and test a scalable hybrid electric engine to validate their design and engine control models.
