About the Competition

The mission definition in International UAV Competition has been left entirely to the teams with the understanding of “Free Mission” since this year.

The competitions aim to direct students of associate, undergraduate and graduate students from all over the world to the UAV technologies, to encourage them to conduct scientific and technical studies, to raise awareness in the society on the UAVs and to create a meeting point for talented and ambitious national and international students. The Competition allow for the flights based on any science and technology implementation and ability with different kinds of UAVs such as fixed-wing, rotary wing, hybrid and flapping wing, etc., without any category or mission restriction.

Teams requesting financial support apply together with the Project Abstract on the dates specified in the competition schedule. A Project Presentation Report is requested from successful teams. Following that, Mission Video is requested from the teams which are successful in the Project Presentation Report stage. If a team does not upload the Mission Video, it is eliminated from the competition.

A team which does not request the financial support can directly apply to the competition during the dates given in the competition schedule by uploading their mission video.

Apart from the information given in the specification, you should be a member of the relevant mail group from the INTERNATIONAL UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE COMPETITION link for other questions you want to ask about the competition.
