optimAero is a UAS design, build, and test house founded in 2018 by a group of doctoral graduates from the Aerospace Engineering department at the Georgia Institute of Technology. With roots in GA and CA, we provide consultation services including design and simulation focusing on aerobotic vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicles. We combine our passion for flight with our skills in systems engineering, autonomy, robotics, optimization, controls, dynamics, piloting, and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to give our projects the best chance of success. We are FAA Part 107 certified.
