| Sikorsky's "Cypher" UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) consists of two four-blade contra-rotating rotors, driven by a 52hp UEL AR 801 rotary engine, inside a 1.95m diameter graphite/epoxy shroud. It can be operated completely automatically or by ground control, with a pylon-mounted sensor pod. In US Army tests, it has searched and tracked man- sized targets, detected unexploded ordnance and taken part in drug interdiction exercises. It located underground structures and tunnels in Nevada for the US Department of Energy. John W.R. Taylor "Images of America - Sikorsky", 1998

Greetings from an Indian bunch of off-beat aero model makers.
An oldies group we build for fun and of course to thrill kids.
Yes we have been building models of rare airplanes mainly in electric these days.
We look to your guidance in something you mentioned about a uav drone system.
Actually we came across the Cypher UAV and built a paper model.
Where ever you are, we pray good health and cheer to you and family.
Thanks and kind regards
