Frequently asked questions
Yes. We engineer custom platforms from concept — mechanical, electronic, firmware and software — tuned to your mission, payload and endurance requirements.
Yes. Beyond prototypes, we manufacture repeatable, quality-controlled production runs in-house in New Zealand.
We develop firmware on ArduPilot and PX4, including custom flight modes, autonomy and bespoke ground control software.
We work under NDA with an IP-respecting engagement model, and because development is in-house and NZ-based the supply chain stays transparent and controlled.
