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.

The Ghost EV

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: jeff kotowski

Home: California, United States

This is a very high efficiency electric vehicle built from the ground up. It seats two people in tandem for a very low CD (coefficient of drag) and a small cross section. The Ghost uses only 18KWh of batteries but gets 100 miles per charge in real world driving and even more on pure highway driving. This has an AC motor, regenerative braking and lithium batteries. It is street legal, registered and insured. The body is made of an aluminum nose in the front and a wood strip for the rest. The goal was to make a modern retro design reminiscent of the 1920's Rolls Royce Silver Ghost. Most people like fast sports cars, but I prefer highly efficient, practical designs that can be made at a low cost.
