cults3d

** Revision on Sept. 14 2023 - updated build guide to fix links to out-of-stock components ** The Valkyrie is an exciting 90mm EDF sport jet inspired by “loyal wingman” combat drones. These unmanned air vehicles are designed to be deployed alongside manned aircraft to protect pilots and assist in their mission. They’re fast, stealthy, and capable machines with enough intelligence to operate with little human oversight. In that spirit, this 3D-printed R/C model can optionally be equipped with an Ardupilot flight controller to enable assisted and autonomous flight features.
