Real aircraft engineering · precision · innovation
We are a multidisciplinary team of engineers, designers, and aviation enthusiasts dedicated to pushing the boundaries of real aircraft engineering. From conceptual design to flight-testing, we blend innovation with precision — every part, every system, every flight.
Our team operates with the spirit of the Design, Build, Fly competition, but our ambition reaches far beyond: we aim to inspire the next generation of aerospace leaders.
To design, build, and fly high-performance unmanned aircraft that demonstrate excellence in aerodynamics, structural integrity, and systems integration — while fostering a culture of hands-on learning and innovation.
drive · precisionTo become a globally recognized engineering team that bridges academia and industry, shaping the future of aviation through sustainable technologies, advanced materials, and a relentless pursuit of flight perfection.
future · flight
Aerospace engineer with 12+ years in UAV design. Leads the vision, strategy, and integration of all sub-systems.
CFD specialist and wind tunnel enthusiast. Optimizes lift, drag, and stability for every flight envelope.
Materials engineer focused on composites, lightweight structures, and stress analysis. Ensures airframe integrity.
The Novus SEDA-100 is a full-scale, non-flying educational model being developed by the Aero Nova DBF Team. The project serves as a practical learning platform for aeronautical engineering students at The Technical University of Kenya (TUK).
The primary objective is to provide students with hands-on exposure to real aircraft design, structural integration, and systems installation — bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical engineering application.
Your financial support directly funds materials, manufacturing, and testing for the Novus SEDA-100. Every contribution brings us closer to building a real educational aircraft.
