Welcome!

Hi there,

This blog will document the flight of Ivory Ultimate. It's not necessarily the best Ivory launch, but it's definitely the last.

This launch features 6 small helicopter fans as active altitude control, 700 mA of solar panels to recharge batteries, and back to our favorite 850 MHz Yagi antenna.

Barring technical setbacks, launch is 9/29/2009 in the early afternoon CDT.

The Antenna is a reproduction of Ivory V4, 850-MHz tuned Yagi.


Here's an early image of the assembly of Ivory V6, Ivorycopter Beta a.k.a. Ivory Ultimate.

  2. This looks either Black Helicopter or UFO. Maybe both. ;-)
