Abstract
This UAV system focuses on delivering a 25kg payload to offshore wind turbines. It has a flexible mission profile that can be extended to offshore logistical operations between platforms and ships, as well as on-shore operations. This project aims to provide an innovative, competitive, sustainable, and accessible design capable of fulfilling this mission, all while serving as an educational environment in which a group of 10 students can develop academically.
