GoAero Purdue


The GOAERO Competition



Our mission is to participate in the development of an autonomy enabled emergency response aircraft to participate in the GoAERO Competition.

Our team is rapidly growing and evolving, just as the GoAERO Competition requires us to. Check out our social media pages to learn more about our team’s goals and accomplishments, or contact us at vfspurd@purdue.edu

It’s not just a competition.
It’s a mission to save lives.




Past Projects: BoilerUP

Before engaging in the GoAERO Competition, VFS focused on performing research on Urban
Air Mobility (UAM) aircraft, iterating between designs to improve it by obtaining hands-on experience.
These images belong to Iteration 1, which successfully took off in 2024 with a full payload of 25lb.
