October 6, 2008
MicroPilot is proud to announce their association with PROTOTYPE
THIS, an all-new Discovery Channel series. PROTOTYPE THIS brings viewers
straight to the drawing board and through the design process to experience
firsthand as inventions come to life. The series features a team of

of tomorrow for people to experience today.
MicroPilot was involved in the show by providing a MP2028 miniature
autopilot, along with autopilot integration. Howard Loewen, President
of MicroPilot stated,
"It was a very ambitious project under a very tight deadline. Congratulations
to our MicroPilot technical team and the talented crew at ProtoType
This! MicroPilot enjoyed being part of the team and we really hope that
you enjoy watching."
