Pilot

A Bit About Me

Hi, fellow drone & tech enthusiast. Let me introduce myself, my name is Nicholas Hansen, I have been messing around with drones since 2010. Since then, I have started studying drones at Purdue University in 2018 and have worked as a Part 107 drone operator for a variety of fields of work. That happened to be literal fields working for precision agriculture operations flying DJI M600s last summer. I also began working on my private pilot’s certificate in a Cessna 172, and hope to finish up by my graduation from Purdue. I do not just focus on the commercial aspect of drones though, I am thoroughly invested in drone racing, specifically fixed wing racing. My current focus is developing drones and looking for that edge, whether it is a faster racing wing, a VTOL that is lighter and can fly longer, or if it is an RC airplane with a custom brake kit to take off and land shorter than before, you will see it here. Thanks for joining me on this journey, let’s see your designs in the skies!
