Welcome to the live feed of the DARPA Lift Challenge. Watch as engineers, researchers, and innovators from across the country test groundbreaking drone designs in real time. From Aug. 3-9, teams will attempt to advance vertical-lift technology by flying uncrewed aircraft capable of carrying payloads up to four times their own weight over a five nautical-mile circuit course. Commentary and analysis will begin on August 6.
