Who are we?
We are a Team of Students at the Technical University of Munich
Phantum is an accredited student club developing record breaking, high-performance UAVs. We are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology through innovation and collaboration.
Projects
To achieve our goal, we set up a plan to slowly build up expertise with the technologies and processes required to go supersonic, by designing multiple aircraft platforms
P-10 “Theseus” – Breaking Aircraft
Try – Fail – Try again. This is the philosophy we have adopted for the start of our project. Mistakes were made, lessons were learned and many more of both will occur as we take to the skies with our first aircraft Theseus. Well into the manufacturing stage, it has provided us with invaluable experience on all aspects of the design and manufacturing of a real aircraft.
Max Speed: 180 km/h
Max Range: 30km
MTOM: 8kg
P-20 “Weasel” – Breaking World Records
A tailless delta optimized for speed and landing using vortex lift, using advanced composite manufacturing techniques, an advanced autonomous architecture and powered by a water-injection augmented Turbojet engine – Weasel represents an ambitious stepping stone to our goal of reaching supersonic speeds, by breaking the world speed record in the under 25kg category.
Max Speed: 975+ km/h
Max Range: 75km
MTOM: 18kg
P-30 “Valkyrie” – Breaking Sound Barriers
Keeping mostly true to the design choices made with Weasel, Valkyrie will be a much larger aircraft capable of full reusability. Featuring cutting edge propulsion technology like a custom designed afterburner, booster stage, and water injection system, it will push the limits of aerospace engineering and redefine what was thought possible by a student team.
Max Speed: 1200+ km/h
Max Range: 500km
MTOM: 140kg
Core Technologies
Thrust Augmentation
We increase thrust using afterburners and water injection
Autonomous Flight
Valkyrie “Mach Dash” is piloted by custom autonomous flight AI
Vortex Lift
Our delta wings enhance vortex lift for higher attack angles
Composite Materials
We use carbon fiber and topology optimization
