The Langley Aerodrome No. 8 (LA-8) is a distributed electric propulsion, vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft that is being used for wind tunnel testing and free flight testing at the NASA Langley Research Center. The intent of the LA-8 project is to provide a low-cost, modular test bed for technologies in the area of Advanced Air Mobility which includes electric urban and short regional flight. The 65 pound LA-8 UAS has an extensive data recording system that can record many flight parameters including airspeed, altitude, pilot inputs, flight control outputs, IMU data, power use, and motor RPM.
