- Sources / Additional Information http://www.fourthwing.com/ Todd Colten, lead aerospace engineer at FourthWing, is also featured in this PTC video from the University of Minnesota: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dq0G3_Ij460 FourthWing spun off from a larger company in January 2014 and had just 6 months to produce its first product, the Vireo, if they hoped to get in the field in time for the 2014 growing season. The Vireo is a 3 pound unmanned aircraft system that farmers use to evaluate the health of their field, often on a weekly basis. That leads to better crop management, as well as more profitable decision making for those in the agricultural business. The team at FourthWing bring 10 years of experience in aerospace engineering to their company.
