Team Profile

The FST 06e is the 6th car built by Projecto FST Novabase, during our 13years of history. In the light of the previous years of participation in the Class 2 event, we are aiming to maintain the same level of excellency already proven. We ran a deep analysis to our cars allowing us to come up with light but reliable solutions for this new prototype, which presents as a clear evolution of the previous ones.

Our team consists of 32 enthusiastic students, all extra-curricular, from mechanical, electrical, informatics and aerospace engineering. We are eager to learn as much as possible during this participation in FS UK, and feel free to give us some feedback about our car. We also want to leave a word of gratitude to our Sponsors, always being in our project, and making our dream come true.
