What an amazing acknowledgement of Dr Andrew Tridgell's global leadership of the ArduPilot open source initiative: winning the @AAUS_Live Industry Champion Award for 2022! BZ Tridge!
Wow, what a shock. We are really sad to hear this. The @uavchallenge has been such an enjoyable event and a driver for our activities for a long time.
It is with great sadness that we are announcing the end of the current UAV Challenge series of events. Please read this article for the details.

We love UAVs and we love space, so we’re really excited about the imminent flights of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter. There is great info on it on @NASA Giant Leaps pod podcasts.apple.com/au/podcas…
Great to hear from @Myebra12 about the work being done by the ANU against bush fires. Great to hear the water glider project getting a mention too!
I briefly talked to @piiawirsu about UAV drone technology for early fire detection and suppression complementing SIG helicopters abc.net.au/radio/northtas/pr…
We had an exciting time this weekend helping @ourANU students test a scale model of a water glider for rapid bushfire response. Here is a test water air burst 🔥 💦 #drones4good @optus @BushfireCRC @minderoo @uavchallenge @RoboticVisionAU @ElizabethLeeCBR

We are sad to see that the UAV Challenge Live will be postponed until 2021. It’s the right decision and we commend the organisers for making it early. Thanks to our sponsors for your support HolyBro, @HobbyKingLive @microhardsys and @airborneinnovations
