• Led the design and testing of a tethered firefighting drone system capable of lifting a 1-inch booster hose for targeted water suppression, achieving key metrics in operational height, flow rate, and deployment time.
• Integrated a custom propulsion system with 6 brushless motors, ESCs, and a power distribution board powered by a 1200W AC/DC supply.
• Conducted thrust, fluid flow, and fire suppression tests to validate drone stability and system performance under real-world constraints.
• Collaborated with Miami-Dade Fire Rescue stakeholders and university advisors to iterate design based on field conditions, environmental limitations, and safety regulations (FAA, NFPA).
• Utilized carbon fiber structures, PID-tuned flight controllers, and custom nozzle/hose assemblies to optimize thermal resistance and firefighting efficiency.
