Earlier this month, Google filed paperwork with the Federal Aviation Administration for two new unmanned aerial vehicles, registering the craft to the company’s Boulder, Colorado., office, rather than its main campus in Mountain View, California.
The FAA documents show that two Google-built UAVs, codenamed the M2 and the B3, have been registered this month. The M2 made the FAA registry on October 2nd, while the B3 was listed October 7th. Both are fixed-wing aircraft with two electric motors, and both weigh less than 55 pounds.
In March this year Google X head Astro Teller announced the organization was working on a new design. but sources familiar with the company said they come from Project Titan, the product of Google’s acquisition of the aerospace company last year.
