Probably the most interesting part of the presentations was carried out outside Department of Electronics where students could see mini UAVs, which are the part of the technical equipment of the Department. Students came to know how these mini UAVs can be programmed and controlled by RC flight controllers. In conclusion, students could try to fly with these mini UAVs.
