Airial Robotics and UND invite members of the media to attend an invitation-only flight demonstration of the GT20 Gyrotrak on Wednesday, August 24, at 1 pm. The GT20 is a next-generation UAV unlike any other commercial drone on the market. It features innovative engineering and technology concepts which allow for longer flight times, heavier payloads, less energy consumption, scalable platforms and unmatched system-inherent safety options.
Please join us as we celebrate our successful investment into North Dakota’s drone ecosystem through our expanding North Dakota team, as well as our partnership in the areas of technology research and workforce development. Together we are developing the next generation of UAV technologies and look forward to more historic-first flights that strengthen North Dakota’s position as the global leader in the UAV industry.
