Over on LinkedIn a promising UK start up looks to be calling it a day. Good luck team with your future endeavours.
Almost two years ago, the team worked day and night to get us our first prototype, and it flew. Considering our budget at the time and the constraints—like producing a full-size airframe made of carbon fibre without any machines or autoclave (because $)—it was quite an achievement!
And it was necessary. It’s easier to see our technology and vision now and say, “This will work” than it was back then. As a start-up that doesn’t fit the typical criteria (e.g., hardware, aerospace, robotics, logistics, and so on), we had to do 10x more to convince people. Very much aligned with, “They didn’t know it was impossible, so they did it.”
But time flies, and it’s time to move on. Dmitry joined as we’re giving this first prototype to Cranfield University, which has always been our #1 supporter and hosted us at Aviate+ back then. Hopefully, it can inspire future Aerospace students!
Should we name it, maybe? “V0” sounds like a kid from Elon Musk.
