University of Waterloo WARG Sponsorship Update

Hello [PERSON/COMPANY NAME],

I am contacting you on behalf of the Waterloo Aerial Robotics Group with an update on our team's performance and major milestones over the past year.

Last summer, our team began developing a new competition quadcopter, Project Pegasus. This project aimed to create a sub-scale passenger transportation system to traverse long distances and land autonomously within a tight timeframe. We focused on using the lessons learned from last year's competition to produce a new and improved solution. Our team members have worked hard over the past ten months to design, build, and test a seamlessly integrated system.

Last week, we competed at the Aerial Evolution Association of Canada (AEAC) Student Competition against several other Canadian universities. We are pleased to report that Pegasus flew all events successfully and secured first place overall. Our final standings are as follows:

  • 1st in design paper

  • 2nd for realism

  • 3rd for project pitch

  • 1st for endurance flight

  • 1st for autonomous landing

  • Judge's Award

We are immensely proud of our achievements at this year's competition, which is a testament to the unwavering dedication and hard work of our team. None of these successes would have been possible without your invaluable support. [COMPANY] 's contributions have been instrumental in our journey, enabling our students to continually learn, improve, and overcome challenges. Our students' commitment and perseverance, not just during the competition but throughout the entire season, have been truly inspiring, and we are thrilled to see our team's growth and progress.

As we reflect on our achievements, we are eager to build on our successes and take on new challenges. On behalf of the Waterloo Aerial Robotics Group, I extend my sincere thanks for your contribution. We are excited to continue our partnership with [COMPANY] as we prepare for next year's challenge.

Cheers,

Georgia Westerlund
