Team Griffin India designs and builds fixed-wing aircraft and multirotor drones for national-level competitions like SAE DDC (Micro & Regular Class) and Multirotor Challenges. We engage in aeromodelling, UAV prototyping, and real-world drone applications.
We work as a multidisciplinary team, dividing tasks across key domains.Each member in each domain contributes by specializing in design, simulation, fabrication, or testing ensuring a streamlined, collaborative workflow from concept to successful flight.
We’re driven by a passion for flight and a desire to innovate beyond the classroom. Our goal is to apply knowledge, sharpen engineering skills, and inspire the next generation of aerospace enthusiasts. We also strive to create a legacy by passing on our experience, learnings, and values to juniors—ensuring continuous growth of the team.
Team Griffin India is gearing up for its first flight into the SAE DDC 2026 Regular Class — a proving ground for heavy-lift UAV engineering and advanced aerodynamics. With bold ideas, strong fundamentals, and relentless dedication, we’re ready to build big, fly strong, and showcase VIT Pune’s engineering spirit on a national platform.
Team Griffin India is preparing to take on the SAE DDC 2026 Micro Class — a competition where agility, innovation, and rapid deployment take center stage. Compact designs, smart mechanisms, and creative thinking drive this challenge, and we’re excited to push boundaries and represent VIT Pune with precision and pride.
