First Person View Aircraft – Aaron Vandegrift

Faire: Wayne County

Maker: Aaron Vandegrift

Home: Ohio, United States

I build, fly, and race First Person View drones and RC planes. First Person View Drones are a category of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. These drones often are used to provide smooth cinematic shots of landscapes or moving objects. Coming in various sizes and configurations First Person View drones are also extensively enjoyed recreationally. Styles of flight include competitive racing, long range flight, or a wide ranging category called freestyle. I personally have only ever raced drones and most of what I have to share has been purpose built for racing. You can see a racing drone I’ve built in the photo I’ve shared above. Although you can buy prebuilt drones the ones I fly have been hand built and soldered and have involved 3d printing accessories and mounts. This fall I plan to start a new MultiGP Chapter (an international club organization) and try to host some races locally. I just need to build the hardware and find a suitable place to host it.

LYBRA – Energy from Traffic

Faire: Rome

Maker: 20energy s.r.l.

Home: Italy

LYBRA: an energy harvesting device, patented in EU & USA, that reduces the speed of vehicles by converting kinetic energy, otherwise wasted by the brakes, into electrical energy A vehicle passes over LYBRA and its momentum compresses the surface. The vehicle undergoes higher rolling friction on the wheels, which absorbs the kinetic energy. The compression of the LYBRA surface activates a patented generator capable of converting the absorbed energy into electrical energy. The energy produced is stabilized and sent to a normal PV inverter for on-site self-consumption.
