Student Drone Hits 491 mph Record
3 min read
Georgia Tech student Tomas Salvo built a homemade jet-powered drone called Reaper that reportedly reached 491 mph. The aircraft sustained this speed for four minutes while carrying a 2.6-pound payload. Salvo funded the $13,000 project personally and used a 250-newton turbojet. If verified, the result would surpass the 465 mph record set in 2017 by Niels Herbrich's Inferno aircraft.
