Team Description

We are Team StarCraft e.V., the Formula Student Team from Ilmenau University of Technology.
We participated for the first time in Hockenheim 2010 where we finished the competition with the Best New Comer Award - Worldwide. One month later in Italy, we were able to double our points.

In 2012 we decided to change our overall concept to FSE and participated at the FSUK and in Italy again where we became 10th in the electric competition. Currently our team consists of about 60 active team members.

In 2013, 2014 and 2016 we participated in the FSE competition in Hockenheim.

Info
Magazin UploadAfter last year‘s fire that destroyed our dreams for FSG 2017, we put all energy into renovating our workshop and regaining the lost equipment. Thanks to the support from our sponsors and fellow FS teams we were able to recover from the severe setback and embraced the opportunity to start with new ideas into this Season. Now we are back on track with a new accumulator, a new sensor and processing setup and the newly developed pneumatic braking system.
