The 10-meter space radio telescope Spektr-R was successfully launched on July 18, 2011, and unfurled several days later. The space element of the ground-space VLB interferometer RadioAstron covers four frequency bands from 0.3 to 25 GHz and provides baselines up to 350,000 km. This will allow to study space objects with a resolution as high as about 10 microarcsecond. In-orbit tests of the space craft are finished, first fringes are found at all four bands of 92, 18, 6, and 1.3 cm. Current status of the mission and plans to move to the open sky phase by 2013 will be discussed. Science objectives and first results of the RadioAstron early science program will be presented.

Air Heritage Inc. originates back to 1983, but was not officially founded until 1990. Our first major project was the complete restoration of the Boeing B-17G, “Nine-0-Nine”, which crashed at the airport during a 1987 air show. Through the early 90’s we acquired some very rare aircraft including a World War II era Douglas A-20H Havoc and Bell P-39 Airacobra. Since then we have lost a few aircraft but have gained more

|Parachutists and the Air Force Academy Falcon at the Balloon Classic|
Below is a video I took of the 2014 Balloon Classic, an annual event held in Memorial Park near downtown Colorado Springs. This shows the Air Force Academy parachutists that dropped in at 8:30 a.m. and landed in Memorial Park.
The parachutists are kind of small in the sky, you can best view the below video in full screen mode. Seeing them from a bit of a distance actually gives a pretty good view of the surroundings and what it was really like there during their drop.
Below the video are various shots of the parachutists and the balloons that hover over town after the mass ascent at 7 a.m.

Indonesia Air Asia flight QZ 8501 went missing over the Java Sea on December 28, 2014 at 6:17 in the morning. After the shock of MH370 going missing in the same region for almost a year, people started speculating the worst. Was this aircraft another MH370? Fortunately for the families and the first wreckage was found a few hours after the crash, and definite proof of the location of the aircraft remains on December 31. But the question people are asking is what happened to the A320? So far, it seems comparably similar to Air France Flight 447 en route from Rio de Janerio to Charles de Gaulle, a A330. These aircraft were both made by the same manufacturer. Both were lost in a Intertropical Convergence Zone. In addition both of them crashed at sea, wherein debris was floating about the point of last known contact. In fact, they also both stalled mid air and the cockpit was blasting with alarms. Weather played apart in both. In the case of Air France 447, the altitude sensing pitot tubes clogged creating a false environment for the pilots. Although we are not certain about the case of Air Asia, most are sure weather played apart in the crash of the airliner, though that may not have been the only factor. An Airworthiness Directive was issued December 10, 2014, stating how control of the aircraft could be lost mid-flight because of icing on the angle of attack probes in joint with the aircraft's stall protection features. With this new addition to the air crashes of 2014, new changes will have to be made in concurrence with the Airworthiness Directive to help ensure disasters similar to this aren't a common happening.
There are so many weird things about aviation that no one really knows about. The parts of a plane for example. In the 2000's, a fully laden Boeing 737 crashed when the pilot and co-pilot were unconcious. The air-circulation aboard the aircraft was set to manual instead of auto, leading to all aboard to be knocked out after about half an hour. Except one. What a flight that must've been for him!
The oldest commercial jet still in service as of 2012 was 47 years old flying for Air Kenya. It was the 4th DC-9 ever built.
An A380 superjumbo has over 4 million parts produced by over 1, 500 companies. The largest plane in the world however isnt the A380. That title belongs to the Antonov 255 cargo jet. The mighty carrier can hold other planes in its hull and boasts 6 engines. Her heaviest take off was 559, 557 pounds of cargo, with a single item on board weighing 418, 834 pounds.
English is the international language of aviation. All pilots, flight attendants and air traffic controllers are required by international law to speak it.
The oldest airline operating under the same title is KLM, Royal Dutch Airlines.
The pilots that flew the Concorde had to be so experienced that there are 3x as many astronauts.
Most aircraft cruise at 35,000 feet but to put into scale how high that is compared to the Earth, if the earth was a desktop globe, the average plane at 35,000 feet would only be a 1/10 of an inch above the surface.
The windshield of a 747-400 costs as much as a BMW.
In the event of a plane crash, it's often safer to be seated in the back. According to Popular Mechanics its a 40% higher chance of survival.
Wings can bend upto 13 feet in flight. They look hard, but they are built to be flexible otherwise theyll break mid-flight.
In 1987 American Airlines saved $40,000 from removing a single olive from first class passengers salad's.

On October 7, SpaceX launched the Falcon 9 and its first half’s landing makes history in California. At 7:21 pm SpaceX launches Falcon 9 from Vandenberg Air Force Base and marks a first as its first stage splits off and lands back at base. At lift off anyone close was able to hear a sonic boom. Everyone’s eyes were tracking the satellite. In a matter of minutes, the first half of the shuttle split off. Just as people thought that the launch was done, everyone saw the bright light of the first stage of the satellite zooming through the air and landing right back from were it came. This launch marked a big step for NASA’s shuttles.

Two bodies have been recovered from Umgeni River after a helicopter crashed into the river by the Umgeni interchange on the N2 northbound on Monday morning.
KZN EMS spokesperson Robert Mckenzie said two bodies have been recovered.
Kyle van Reenen, from Emer-G Med, said when paramedics arrived at the scene, they found that a Robinson 22 helicopter was fully submerged under the water.
"A rescue operation was launched by members of the South African Police and Emer-G-Med's Search and Rescue Units. Both pilot and co-pilot were found entrapped in the aircraft and sadly were pronounced deceased on the arrival of paramedics.
"It is speculated that the cause of the crash is that of a bird strike, however, the Aviation authorities will conduct the necessary investigations accordingly," said Reenen.
Traffic has been backed up on the N2 Umgeni interchange as police conduct investigations on the site.
This is a developing story.

The first legal drone delivery was carried out last week. Will our skies soon be filled with drone activity?
Are companies like Amazon closing in on a drone delivery service?
In the last couple of years, flying drones have been creeping into the news. Back in 2013 Jeff Bezos, CEO at Amazon, told 60 Minutes that Amazon would soon be using a drone delivery service to deliver packages to customers. Bezos claimed that ‘Amazon Prime Air’ would be rolling out in 2015, but the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) crushed that dream in February of this year when they put strict regulations on all drone devices in the US.
But even with the FAA stepping in to keep drone deliveries out of American skies for now, we may see drones sooner than previously expected.
The first legal drone delivery in the United States took place last Friday on July 17. The Australian drone startup Flirtey took the glory in the monumental delivery, and we can’t imagine that Amazon was thrilled.
The drone carried 24 medical packages across three three-minute flights from Lonesome Pine Airport, Virginia to a pharmacy near Wise County Fairgrounds. The journey was a success: the 4.5 kg of important cargo was delivered with ease.
This particular flight was deemed ‘research’ into drone delivery, making it an exception to the FAA’s drone regulations. In fact, the FAA supported the project. Its purpose was to showcase how effective a drone can be in carrying out medical deliveries in hard-to-access areas around the United States.
During the flight, Flirtey documented its excitement via Twitter:
Flirtey has just completed the first FAA approved drone delivery in the U.S. – a Kitty Hawk moment in Wise Virginia
— Flirtey (@Fly_Flirtey) July 17, 2015
There’s no doubting that Friday’s event was historic. So what does that mean for the future of drones in the United States?
Amazon still has sky-high hopes for its Prime Air service. On their website it says the service will take some time, but they will deploy when they have the regulatory support needed to realize their vision. In other words, once they work out the “minor” details with the FAA, Amazon Prime Air will go into full effect.
Check out Amazon’s Prime Air in action in this quick video:
As of now, Amazon has permission from the FAA to test their drone flights. However, there are of course firm regulations. For example, they must keep all flights under 400 feet or below and they can only fly drones during the day. The drone operator must have a valid operator’s certificate, and the drone must be in the operator’s view at all times.
GoPro is another company that has exploited the drone movement. The world’s favorite action-sports camera works perfectly with a flying drone to shoot high definition video. Drones turn amatuer videographers into professionals, allowing them to capture aerial footage that would be otherwise impossible.
In the past, other drones such as the DJI Phantom were created to work alongside GoPro’s versatile cameras. Now, Nick Woodman, CEO of GoPro, has seen the opportunity that drones provide and has announced the first GoPro-made quadcopter (a less threatening word for ‘drone’). The details regarding the GoPro quadcopter are still a bit unclear, but Woodman stated that it will be released sometime in 2016.
There’s no telling how long it will be until our skies are dotted with aerial drones. Many people are against this movement due to issues with privacy and safety, but it’s hard to imagine at this point that drones will be disregarded as another technology fad.
Flirtey showed us that drone delivery is possible. Now it’s only a matter of time before the shoes you purchase online arrive faster than the amount of time it takes to run to the store.

For decades space tourism has been nothing but a dream, today we might be closer than ever before.
August is a big month for Virgin Galactic, with having been awarded an operator license by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration’s Office of Commercial Space Transportation (FAA-AST). The company will begin test flights for its new SpaceShipTwo named VSS Unit, a crucial step in the journey to ultimately offer commercial operations to space.
The license granted by the FAA was awarded after a several- year, in-depth analysis of the spacecraft in order to determine viability. The vehicle’s system functionality, safety analysis, and flight trajectory analysis were all taken into consideration by the FAA in their decision to approve Virgin to conduct test experiments to eventually fly humans into space.
Virgin Galactic Senior Vice President of Operations Mike Moses said, “The granting of our operator license is an important milestone for Virgin Galactic, as is our first taxi test for our new spaceship. While we still have much work ahead to fully test this spaceship in flight, I am confident that our world-class team is up to the challenge.”
Ultimately, company officials have talked about having a fleet of rocket ships, able to launch frequently on a set schedule from airborne aircraft, but then return to land on a conventional runway and a specially outfitted terminal built in New Mexico.
The SpaceShipTwo spacecraft are designed to launch six passengers and two pilots into space, passengers get to briefly experience weightlessness and see the Earth from outside the atmosphere before returning to Earth. Such thrill rides would allow passengers, hundreds of whom have already plunked down $250,000 deposits, to According to Inverse & Fortune magazine, those who are speculated to have already reserved the down payment include Paris Hilton, Tom Hanks, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Stephen Hawking, Tom Hanks, and Katy Perry.
Virgin Galactic has hit milestones since their last attempt at space tourism a couple years back which end in a deadly accident when the co-pilot released the braking system too early. The co-pilot was killed and the pilot survived after suffering severe injury. The National Transportation Safety Board determined to have been due to human error and poor safety procedures.
Nonetheless, the company spear-headed by Richard Branson, has created a more sophisticated version since the first SpaceShipTwo. Virgin Galactic is now pioneering space tourism with hopes to begin commercial travel in the near future.


Drone & Helicopter Day is the 4th Saturday of each month, December through March.
We offer special runway time to the pilots of drones and helicopters and also hold drone races on our drone course. See the video below to view the course.
AMA & FAA Drone safety rules are enforced. All done flights must be under 400 feet and within the sight of the pilot or spotter. No aircraft are allowed to fly beyond the club's 11 acre leased land. Fly safely and responsibly at all times. View our field boundary map below.
The following rules and regulations were approved by the CG RC Flyers BOD on 4 November 2017. There is an international working committee that is helping to both design drone racing courses and the surrounding event and flight rules and regulations. The results of those efforts will be used to form the any revised versions of the Casa Grande RC Flyers operational rules and regulations for Drone Racing.
These rules are intended for Casa Grande RC Flyers as the basis for local drone flying training and for local competitions. It is the intent of the CG RC Flyers Directors to help shape the standard set of drone and FPV RC racing rules for our club field.
Based on: 2015 US NATIONAL DRONE RACING CHAMPIONSHIPS
WORKING DRAFT RULES AND REGULATIONS V.1.2 Publish Date: June 12, 2015
Drone Racing is considered an amateur and sport enthusiast competitive event, as defined by the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA). Local events will follow the general rules and regulations of typical amateur competitions and airshows. Special events may be sanctioned by the AMA and will expressly follow the rules and regulations of a sanctioned Competitive Sporting event as well as the general AMA rules.
Participation in Done Flying
All participating pilots must be current AMA or MAAC,and Casa Grande RC Flyers members. Guest or visiting participating pilots must be current AMA or MAAC members and pay a landing fee.
Definition of Terms

General Piloting Rules
Pilots must adhere to all AMA rules and regulations of safe aircraft operation and flight.
Pilots must adhere to any applicable FAA regulations and other special event notifications, restrictions or regulations established for an event.
All pilots must register for races, attend a general safety briefing and, if necessary, sign the appropriate waivers from the race organizer.
All pilots must demonstrate effective Fail-Safe procedures to prevent uncontrolled fly-aways that must be approved by the Flight Director. In some cases, this is the return to home mode if it loses contact with the radio transmitter.
Transmitters must have start switch or sequence. The aircraft should not power up by accidently by moving the throttle. Aircraft arming may be executed by a specific switch on the radio, or by a sequence, i.e: pulling both control sticks down and to the middle.
Pilots must ensure that their transmitter or any other electronic devices (including smart phones, tablets and computers) do not interfere with the aircraft or devices of any other pilot.
Pilots must demonstrate an air-worthy airframe and pass general mechanical, electronic and video function checks.
Pilots must demonstrate basic piloting skills and must successfully fly a controlled flight around the course within a certain amount of time exhibiting the ability to pilot and navigate their airframe around pylons and/or through obstacles.
Pilots must use FPV to fly their aircraft. This can be Goggles or a ground station LCD type display.
Pilots must adhere to all local airfield rules.
Pilots must contain all equipment, airframes within the pilot pit area and must not solder, weld or cause any spark within the pit area.
Charging for general charging of electronic devices including radios or any device with a self-contained power supply is permitted.
All batteries must be stored in a LIPO-safe bag or in an approved fire resistant container.
Racing Categories - General Information
The CG RC Flyers drone race courses are designed to test both speed and agility skills. Currently there are the following categories of races (Timed and Ladder style competitions):
Speed Pylon Race:
Solo Pylon Timing: Fly around the pylon course: pylon 1, twice around pylons 2 >5, not through gates or around obstacles, and pylon 6 to the finish line - timed.
Pylon Pursuit: Two drones fly pylon course: pylon 1, twice around pylons 2 >5, not through gates or around obstacles, and pylon 6 to the finish line. - first across the finish line.
Obstacle Pylon Race: Pylon Course featuring various obstacles, gates and flags. This course may include under/over obstacles, funnel gates, hairpin turns, slalom, etc…
Solo Obstacle Timing: Fly around the pylon course (twice around pylons 2 >5, through gates or around obstacles) and to the finish line – timed.
Pylon Obstacle Pursuit: Two drones fly pylon course: pylon 1, twice around pylons 2 >5, through gates or around obstacles, and pylon 6 to the finish line. - first across the finish line.
Drone Drag Racing:
Solo: Drone races length of runway - timed.
Pursuit: Two drones race length of runway – first across the finish line.
Judging and Field Director
All races will be governed by a judging Committee and the Flight Director.
A sanctioned AMA event will follow the general rules and regulations of amateur competition.
Races may be monitored by judges, via FPV of the pilot’s video feed, (either goggles or display) cameras, timing/lap systems and field marshals to maintain fair and accurate competition.
The Flight Director has final executive decision-making authority.
Any practice or behavior that deemed unsafe, (i.e. flying over the pit or spectator area, or outside of the field boundaries) will result in an immediate disqualification.
Airframe General Guidelines
The CG RC Flyers field rules allow both gas and electric aircraft, but are limited to a maximum weight of no more than 10 pounds.
The 2015 National classifications are designed to be loosely defined in order to promote innovation in new configurations, materials, motors and prop variations. Currently there is only one class category defined for the 2015 event, which is the “250 Class” size airframe. There are no minimums defined at this point, only the maximum:
250 Class multirotor (3, 4 or 6 motors)
Maximum Frame size under 330mm motor to motor
4S maximum LIPO battery
6″ Maximum propeller size, 5” in the case of 3 bladed propellers
Must use official video transmitters provided by the event organizers.
All airframes must pass a safety and air-worthiness inspection. Once the airframe has been checked and approved, it must not be modified or changed, or it will need to be re-inspected. Airframes should be repaired with equivalent parts that were originally used during check-in. The Flight Director has the final decision on whether an airframe is accepted, and or requires changes or modifications in order to be approved for racing.
Field, Course and Venue Operations
The RC airfield is explicitly controlled by the Flight Director and the Safety Officer wearing high visibility vests. Either official has the ability to disqualify any pilot for any reason, and has the ability to stop a race or flight at any time for any reason.
The RC airfield is restricted airspace and only authorized personnel (pilots, spotters, recovery crews and Club Officials) are allowed in the pit area and on the airfield.
All flights are grounded while any personnel are on the runway or beyond the pilot stations.
Personnel engaged in active recovery of any airframe must immediately remove all battery power from the aircraft upon contact.
For competitive events, the field must have a fire extinguisher and a shovel, and a basic first aid kit ready to be immediately deployed in case of fire or injury.
Metal covers (such as a trash can lid) should be available for all Drone Recovery crews to use as a shield if other retrieval methods are unsuccessful.
The Flight Director and the Safety Officer must have 2-way radios (FRS or GMRS) with a specific channel designated for flight operations and first-aid/emergency communications. All directors (operations, flight, judging) must have access to a radio. It is recommended that any airframe recovery personnel on the field also have a radio.
Drone recovery crews must not enter the field until all aircraft have landed. Aircraft recovery crews must expediently remove all airframe parts, components and debris from the field, and do a quick analysis of the airframe to see if all parts have been retrieved. If an airframe is still powered and props are spinning, they must try to safely indicate via hand signals through the pilot camera the Thumbs Down signal to indicate to the pilot to power down their aircraft. In all cases do not attempt to handle an aircraft that has motors engaged, spinning or is on fire. Use the metal lid in order to cover the craft and attempt to neutralize a fire.
Official Course Dimensions and Boundaries
The CG RC Flyers Drone Course is contained within the established RC Airfield property (see map).
Flight paths have a safety buffer zone with a minimum of 10 yards from spectator areas.
Start/Finish Flight paths do not direct 100% energy force of the airframe directly at the audience. Accidents, yaw spinouts and other impacts that cause the aircraft to alter from its flight path have been considered and implemented into the design.
Spectators are allowed for viewing purposes, but must remain outside the fenced pilot pit area.
Course Timing Systems (as used in US Drone Nationals)
The CG RC Flyers will use a stopwatch for timed races or first past the finish line for pursuit races.
The US Drone Nationals uses a timing system to officially track the time of each pilot throughout the races. Each pilot must rent or purchase a compatible timing emitter with a unique ID and properly install it on the airframe that is to be raced.
Emitter is powered via a 3-pin standard servo type connector for power (5v) For example, an unused channel on a control receiver can be used or an unused motor output on a flight controller. The emitter should be powered by a connector instead of direct solder connection for easy removal and positioning on another aircraft.
IR emitter must point horizontally outwards towards the starboard side on the airframe. The sensors will be mounted vertically along the right side of the Start/Finish Gate.
Each pilot is responsible for mounting the emitter in a location conducive to 100% successful triggers. (i.e. don’t accidentally block it with a Velcro strap) The mounting location will be inspected during check in for optimum placement.
Emitters should be mounted securely to the airframe in a location that will not easily be damaged in a crash. Typically this is on the top of the airframe.
Pilot is responsible for the safe powering of the emitter, and failed triggers due to improper operation, overpowering, overheating, improper mounting or failed trigger is the complete responsibility of the pilot.
Any failed non-triggers are the responsibility of the pilot, and any judgments for manually adding times or adjustments are at the sole discretion of the Field Marshal.
Flight Deck Race Count-down Procedures
The CG RC Flyers will use the US Nationals four-stage process for all racing heats. Each stage is designed to check for the various conditions, prepare video transmitters and have all pilots organized and ready for racing. The Flight Director will monitor each stage. All heats and pilots will proceed together through each stage. Each heat will be 7 minutes in duration. The stages are as follows:
Stage 4 (21 minutes from flight): Pre-flight air-worthiness check. All airframes will undergo safety checks. All cables, connectors, props and electronics will be pre-flight checked by the pilot.
Stage 3 (14 minutes from flight): Pilots will be assigned a race position. The aircraft should not be powered up at this time.
Stage 2 (7 minutes from flight): Pilots will take their airfcraft to the start position and await the next heat. Pilots may power up their goggles or displays but may not power up their radio at this time.
Stage 1 (On Flight Deck): Pilots will proceed to their assigned seats at the pilot stations and power up their radios. Spotters will power up the airframe, check the video feed by the number of fingers in front of the pilot camera to confirm successful and correct video feed. The pilot must give a “Thumbs Up” to the Flight Director when they have successfully powered up video and have the correct video feed. Pilots must not start engines until directed by the Flight Director.
Once all pilots have given the Thumbs Up sign, the Flight Director will commence the race start count down. It will proceed as follows:
Pilots Start your engines
Pilots at the Ready
Count down 3, 2, 1, Air horn blast.
Air horn short blast will signal commencement of the race.
At the discretion of the Flight Director or Safety Officer, the race may be stopped at any time. If this occurs, pilots shall follow the Flight Director’s instructions.
Three air horn blasts will sound in case of emergencies (ie: uncontrolled fly-away). All pilots must prepare to land their aircraft immediately. If this occurs, pilots shall follow the Safety Officer or Flight Director’s instructions.
Course Rules of Engagement
Aircraft must stay within the RC Airfield and all prescribed flight paths.
Pilots must keep all aircraft engines off until the Flight Director gives the “Start Engines” signal. This will happen only when the aircraft has been placed on the starting position and all field staff have left the area.
Pilots must adhere to the prescribed launch sequence. No movement before the starting signal.
False starts will incur a penalty at the discretion of the Flight Director. Most standard penalties will be pre-defined before the start of the race and posted. Generally they are defined as:
False Start penalty: 5 seconds.
Not following flight path: 5 seconds.
Flying in opposite direction of flight path direction: 5 seconds.
Deliberately attacking or crashing into opponent: Disqualification and elimination from any further flying.
Deliberately flying towards the pilot stations or spectator area: Disqualification and elimination from any further flying.
Other minor infractions as deemed by the Flight Director or Safety Officer.
Pilots must maintain control of their aircraft at all times and only fly within their skill level.
Any pilot who exhibits unsafe flying procedures may be disqualified at any time at the discretion of the Flight Director or safety Officer.
Once pilots have successfully completed all laps, they must return to the start/finish pad, land and DISARM. Pilots must give the Flight Director a “THUMBS UP” that they have completed their flight.
Pilots that have crashed at any point during the heat and are unable to resume racing must DISARM their aircraft, give the Flight Director a “Thumbs Down” indication and wait until the heat is over. The airframe will be recovered by the field crew.
Pilots must successfully fly through all gates, flags, and other obstacles on the course. If a pilot misses an obstacle, they must safely turn around and attempt the obstacle again. They will have up to two further attempts before being disqualified from the heat. Judges will ride along via FPV with the pilot, and will indicate immediate to the pilot if they must correct any flight path errors. Additionally, the Field Marshal and field observer judges may signal to the Flight Director that an obstacle has been missed. In this case the pilot must immediately and safely return to the missed obstacle and attempt to successfully navigate it.
Pilots must fly around pylon turns at or below the level of the top of the pylon (8-10ft). They may climb up to the maximum ceiling height on straight-a ways.
Maximum Ceiling height for this event is 40 feet (12m). Any breach of the ceiling will result in immediate disqualification from that heat. If the pilot receives two breaches of the ceiling height or goes out of bounds at any time during the event the pilot will be completely disqualified from the event. If a pilot has breached the ceiling or has gone out of bounds, the pilot must immediately land the aircraft in a safe location on the field. The Flight Director or Safety Officer will give further instructions.
In the event of a crash or the inability to resume flight safely, the pilot must immediately DISARM their aircraft and give the Thumbs down signal.
The field staff may use various hand signals in the front of the pilot’s camera to indicate air-worthiness status to the pilot. Thumbs up means the pilot is pre-cleared for flight. Thumbs down means the craft is damaged and is not able to fly. In all cases if you see field staff in the First Person View pilot camera, you must disarm and wait for further instructions.
Pilots may have multiple airframes, and each airframe must pass all safety and air-worthiness checks before flying.
The Field Marshal has the right to disqualify any pilot for any reason if the pilot or piloting behavior is deemed unsafe or if the pilot has breached any rule or regulation within this document.
Emergency or Fail-Safe Procedures
Should a pilot lose control of their aircraft, the pilot must attempt a safe landing, cut throttle in a safe area or execute a failsafe procedure in a safe area.
If a pilot loses video, they must immediately execute a fail-safe procedure and or attempt to land the aircraft via Line of Sight. All spotters must assist pilot in determining the location of your aircraft.
Spotters must maintain visual line of sight of the corresponding pilot’s airframe at all times and must provide verbal directions or situational awareness details to the pilot. If the aircraft breaches the max ceiling height or goes out of bounds, Flight Director or Safety Officer will indicate to the pilot the infraction and the spotter must immediately assist the pilot in maintaining control and safely land the aircraft.
Course Competition Stages
Practice: Pilots may practice at the designated practice field before the event. All practice runs may be timed but will not count towards time trial qualifying runs. It time permits, pilots will be able to have one practice round before the commencement of the time trials on the first official day of the races.
Time Trials: Each competitor can attempt to fly the course two times, with the best time being their qualifying time. If the pilot does not complete the course because of a mishap on the course, or is unable to complete all the obstacles successfully within the two attempts and has not received a warning for any infraction, they will be eligible for finals qualification, and will be ranked by random order instead of time.
Finals: By using the time trials as an initial seed for the ranking order, each pilot will be ranked in order of time, then randomly for any pilot that received a DNF. Initial heat groupings will be selected by a typical ladder system and pilots will progress through the ladders to the semi-finals, finals and championships.
Fly Safe – Have fun!

DJI has just announced their Mavic line-up drone Mavic Air 2S, a new lightweight drone with all the features that you need to capture amazing quality clips and pictures with the help of a 1-inch sensor. And you might already wonder What is the Price of Mavic Air 2S is going to be in Nepal. Mavic Air 2s Price in Nepal is going to be a little expensive than the last model which was Mavic Air 2 and cheaper than the Original Mavic 2 pro. Before we discuss those things we are going to see how capable this drone is not in the paper only but in the real world as well when it compares to the last Mavic Air 2 and also the Mavic 2 Pro.
We already know DJI is by far the leader in drones for filmmakers and content creators, but they haven’t let that stop them from continuing to innovate to stay ahead of their own stand. New Mavic Air 2S has a maximum resolution of 5.4K at 30fps or 4K 60fps, as well as the option of shooting in a 10-bit log, the small unit packs a big punch.
The Air 2S is 180×97×80 mm folded down, not much different in size if you compare it to the Mavic Air 2. It’s the most compact drone to feature a camera with a 1″ sensor and a pixel size of 2.4μm. Nestled on a 3-axis gimbal and stabilized by RockSteady EIS, it has a 22mm (35mm Equiv.) fixed-aperture F2.8 lens with an 88º FOV and can capture 20MP stills including timed photos, AEB (in 3 and 5 brackets), and panoramas.
The compact and foldable design of the DJI Air 2S Drone helps you to record amazing videos and pictures in any condition. It’s an ideal alternative for use when traveling on vacation or for photography enthusiasts looking to record from new and unique perspectives. Piloting is made to be easy and intuitive via your smartphone and the DJI Fly app. Simply slip your phone into the included remote controller. Thanks to the Air 2S’s 3-axis gimbal, four remote antennae, and OcuSync 3.0 technology, you can receive a stable, live view from the drone up to 7.5 miles away. Now, Let’s check out what more it can offer.
- Compact & Foldable Design
- 20MP Stills or up to 5.4K Ultra HD Video recording
- 3-Axis Gimbal with 22mm Lens & 1″ CMOS Sensor
- Master shots Automated Themed Filming
- FocusTrack Subject Tracking
- QuickShot Aerial Effects
- Hyperlapse Modes for Timelapse Videos
- 4-Antenna Remote with 7.5-Mile Range
- 4-Direction Obstacle Avoidance
- D-Log 10-Bit Color & 12.6-Stop RAW
Design and Controller
When you look at the outside, the Air 2S looks extremely similar to the Mavic Air 2, with just a few subtle differences. As you’d expect, it features the folding design that Mavic drones are known for just like on the Mavic Air and Pro series. The front arms swing out, while the rear arms rotate down and out for a flight and help keep the drone highly transportable.
The Air 2S is small just like the other smaller drones out there. It’s barely any different from its predecessor, but that puts the folded length at 4mm shorter than the Mavic Air 2. And at just 595g, the Air 2S is just over half the weight of the DJI Mavic 2 Pro and just 25g heavier than the Air 2, which is very impressive considering its larger camera.
Video and Image Quality
It doesn’t matter how many bells and whistles you put on a drone by giving a massive spec list, it’s the image quality that’s often the most important feature. In the case of Mavic Air 2S, It undoubtedly delivers everything they offer.
It features a 20MP 1-inch sensor, with the camera providing an 88-degree field of view or a full-frame equivalent focal length of 22mm. Like the Mavic Air 2, the Air 2S also, unfortunately, has a fixed f/2.8 aperture (more on that later) with a focus range of 60cm to infinity.
In the case of Still Images, It appears to be slightly softer at the edges than those from the Mavic 2 Pro, even when the Pro’s aperture is set to f/2.8. But while noticeable in a side-by-side comparison, this drop in sharpness is extremely minimal and is no reason to choose one drone over the other. In the video, however, the image is sharp across the frame.
Pre-Programmed Modes for Pro-Level Footage
The DJI Air 2S has the most programmed flight modes and image capture modes of any DJI drone of its size. These creative options include:
- Master Shots: Professional-level aerial footage has never been easier. After activating MasterShots, the drone will autonomously plan a flight path, choose from three different image capture modes, including Proximity, Portrait, or Landscape, and start recording classic aerial footage. Pilots can choose different themes and the DJI The fly app will generate a unique video that’s ready to be shared with the world.
- FocusTrack: Focus on the scene and let DJI Air 2S do the hard work for you. Select your subject by drawing a square around it on your mobile device, then choose from Point of Interest 3.0, an autonomous flight path around the subject; ActiveTrack 4.0, a tool that seamlessly tracks the subject and keeps it in the frame; or Spotlight 2.0, where the drone movement is controlled by the pilot while it locks the subject into the frame.
- QuickShots: A staple DJI feature, QuickShot modes include Rocket, Circle, Dronie, Helix, Boomerang, and Asteroid.
- Hyperlapse: See the world sped up from the air and in motion with the Hyperlapse option in resolution up to 4K. Content captured in 4K resolution and lower can apply digital stabilization for an added layer of smoothness.
- Circle: It flies around a subject and generates a timelapse video.
- Course Lock: It helps to Lock onto a subject and flies in a straight line as the gimbal tracks it, keeping it centered in the frame.
- Waypoint: You can set up a flight plan with up to 5 waypoints. The Air 2S will automatically fly along with the waypoints and record a timelapse video. The altitude, distance, and gimbal angle of each waypoint can be adjusted.
- Free: This provides you with complete freedom and manual control over the drone and gimbal.
- ActiveTrack 4.0: Select a subject and the drone will track and keep it centered in the frame. It will then automatically fly and track the subject as it moves, keeping a safe distance and utilizing the Air 2S’s wide sensing range of its obstacle avoidance to protect itself in flight. If the subject is lost, the drone will automatically attempt to reacquire a lock.
- Spotlight 2.0: Select a subject and the drone will track and keep it centered in the frame, giving you the ability to pilot freely.
- POI 3.0: This will track a subject in a circle, based on a set radius and flight speed.
So where does that leave the Mavic Air 2S stands? The thing we kept coming back to in our minds was the content creator. If you’re someone putting out a lot of content for YouTube and other platforms, with fast edit and a real need to keep equipment lightweight for travel one place to another, the Mavic Air 2S is likely going to be the drone for you.
The real advantage over the Mavic Air 2 is, It has a bigger sensor than the Mini 2 and Mavic Air 2, so if you’re not invested in either of those and want to save money over the Mavic 2 Pro/Zoom, the Air 2S is absolutely the better choice, You can save little money also the image quality is also going to be great well.

Prior to sending satellite components to space, they have to undergo a thorough testing. This is because even minor parts can bring a long-term project to strand if they fail in mission. In order to minimize the probability of losses objects tested in realistic environment for an extended period (up to three month). Typical conditions are vacuum levels of 10-05 mbar and adjustable temperatures in the range of -80°C to + 150°C. Successful UNIVEX project for a space simulation chamber in Spain
The Leybold Systems team has developed, manufactured and tested a corresponding test chamber for a customer in Spain. The successful factory acceptance test of our UNIVEX 1200 S TC (S is standing for Space, TC is standing for Thermal Chamber) was conducted in our Cologne facilities in June 2018.
The UNIVEX1200 S TC mainly consists of a cylindrical vacuum chamber with a diameter of 1200 mm and a depth of about 1000 mm. Inside the chamber there is a slide-out tempering table for placing the specimen and a radiation shield. Both are tempered by means of an individual thermal-unit; silicon oil is used as a heat transfer media. For reaching the required vacuum level, a MAGW1300iP is working together with our ECODRY 65 Plus. The UNIVEX1200 S TC can be operated in local mode from our systems PLC (touch panel) and the operating panels of the thermal units. However, in daily business the customer will use a network-connection to start/stop and monitor the system.
