This school year, DeltaHawk partnered with James Bucholtz’s Aviation pathway program at Horlick High School for an immersive student capstone project.

The students were tasked with solving a real-world problem for DeltaHawk. After kicking things off with a facility tour, they worked all year on an essay, video, and final presentation. Huge thanks to DeltaHawk mentor Bryce Rybarik for guiding the students and opening the hangar for their project needs.

Today, the students presented their final solutions to our leadership team and did an outstanding job. Thank you to the The Academies of Racine Youth Apprenticeship program and the Horlick Aviation program at Racine Unified Schools for such a rewarding collaboration! The future of flight is in good hands!

DeltaHawk is driving the future of autonomous flight! ✈️🤖

Our team—Max Moulis, Daniel Schimp, Bryce Rybarik, and John Stephansky—recently wrapped up an incredible week in Detroit at AUVSI’s XPONENTIAL 2026!

The biggest takeaway this year? The industry is moving fast from conceptual designs to practical, field-ready systems. With a massive push toward long-range endurance, vertical lift, and operations in rugged, infrastructure-limited environments, DeltaHawk drew strong interest for our:

Heavy-fuel propulsion technology 🛠️

Scalable production capabilities 📈

Reliable, efficient, U.S.-built systems 🇺🇸

As commercial and defense sectors demand ultimate operational flexibility, DeltaHawk is ready to deliver.

We are incredibly proud to showcase a recently completed senior capstone project in partnership with the brilliant minds at the Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) ! 🎓

Students Ryan Anderson, Victor Bisog, and Dani Krogh—under the guidance of Advisor Dr. Kevin Hart—took on a complex aerospace challenge: designing an ultralight engine block for small aircraft.

Using a specialized injection-molded phenolic resin with short glass fiber reinforcement, this talented team engineered an alternative engine block design that achieved an incredible 30.8% weight reduction while meeting rigorous thermal, pressure, and structural constraints.

A few project highlights:
🛠️ The Mission: Reduce overall weight of a horizontally opposed, aluminum, twin-cylinder boxer engine.

🛠️ The Innovation: Selected a high-strength composite material unreactive to coolant and fuel, capable of handling intense thermal gradients.

🛠️ The Proof: Advanced FEA Analysis proved a powerful Factor of Safety (3.36), ensuring the design can withstand intense combustion pressures.

A massive thank you to the MSOE team and everyone involved for their incredible work. Investing in the next generation of engineers isn’t just rewarding; it’s how we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in aviation power.

We had an incredible time at the Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) for the annual SAE end-of-year banquet. Four of our DeltaHawk engineers were on-site to host a booth, showcasing our engine components and sharing the "why" behind our mission to redefine general aviation.

We’re proud to support student organizations like SAE that bridge the gap between the classroom and the industry. Thanks to the MSOE leadership and Dr. Nebojsa Sebastijanovic for hosting a top-tier event!

It’s always inspiring to see the passion these students bring to the Supermileage, Formula Hybrid, and Baja teams. The future of engineering is in good hands!
