Thomas Hipkins Email & Phone Number

- I enjoy hands on working, I taught my self how to work on classic cars and was lucky enough to have gone through around 10 of them. From 1925 on up to 1970, from various levels of restoration and using a wide variety of tools. I have one 1940 Hudson truck where I worked on it from the ground up and custom built and designed every inch of it.- My senior project I have been working on developing a digital twin for a UAV project. I am on the experimental team where we are designing the test article to compare with the structures team to make sure our gauges work correctly. My main job was picking where and what types of stain gauges and LVDT's to use that gave us the best result without going crazy in price.-I also have previous flight experience from high school when I used to fly Cessna 172's and accumulated over 50 flight hours.
