WREXHAM Glyndŵr University students will test their aeronautical skills in an international drone building competition. A team of students from the university have submitted their final design report for their unmanned aircraft system which will compete against more than 30 other teams from around the world at the 8th annual UAS Challenge of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers. The seven students, under the name of the Red Dragons, have been working to perfect a drone to perform disaster response missions to deliver vital aid to stranded survivors quickly, accurately and safely, even in adverse environmental conditions. Team leader Lauren Hale, who is studying for an MSc in UAS Technology, said: “We are extremely proud to be representing Wales on a global scale for such forward thinking technology and innovation.
