What we build
Six airframes, each answering a different question
These are the configurations we design and assemble. None of them is a fixed product you order from a shelf — each is a starting geometry that gets sized around your payload and your flight profile.
How to read this
A platform is a shape, not a model number
Manufacturers sell you an aircraft and then ask what you will do with it. We work the other way. The six entries below describe families — a set of design decisions about lift, endurance and where the payload sits — and the specific machine falls out of your requirement.
The lines marked class, profile and control are deliberately qualitative. Real figures depend on the payload you choose, the altitude you fly at and the weather you accept, and any number quoted before those are known is marketing rather than engineering.
Rotary
When it has to hover
Multirotors trade endurance for precision. Everything that works slowly, close to a surface, or has to stop and look lives here.
Inspection Compact
Tethered Observer
Indoor Rotorcraft
Wing
When it has to cover ground
A wing carries itself. The moment the job becomes distance rather than detail, rotors stop being the efficient answer.
VTOL Survey Wing
Vertical take-off, then transition to wing-borne cruise. No runway, no catapult, and long transects on a fraction of the energy a multirotor would burn.
Patrol Wing
A longer-range variant for linear work — pipelines, corridors, coastline — where the aircraft flies out, follows a line and comes back.
The trade
A wing cannot stop. If the job needs the aircraft to pause and look closely at something, this is the wrong family.
The mount
Sensor bays sit in the fuselage with a fixed downward view, sized for mapping and multispectral heads rather than a moving gimbal.
Common architecture
What every airframe shares
The families differ in shape. Underneath, they are built the same way, because that is what makes them serviceable by someone who is not us.
- Standard fasteners and tools — no proprietary keys
- Accessible bays for battery, avionics and payload
- Labelled, documented wiring looms
- Arms and legs replaceable as units in the field
- Open payload mount so sensors can change later
- Component and revision log tied to the serial
Payload bays
What goes underneath
The mount is deliberately generic. A payload you buy in two years should fit an airframe you bought today.
Optical
Gimballed visible-light heads for inspection and observation, with zoom where the work needs standoff.
Thermal
Infrared for hot joints, dead solar strings, livestock at dusk and search work in poor light.
Multispectral
Banded imaging for crop stress, canopy health and vegetation survey on a repeatable flight path.
Mapping
Survey cameras and positioning gear for orthophoto, topographic and volumetric output.
Liquid
Tank, pump and boom assemblies sized to the airframe, with nozzle sets chosen for the application.
Granular
Hopper and spreader units for fertiliser, seed and beneficial release across open ground.
Lighting
Work and beacon lighting for night inspection and for making the aircraft obvious to people below.
Custom
Sampling heads, release mechanisms, relay gear — if it has a mass and a mounting point, it can be designed in.
Made to order
When none of the six is right
Roughly a third of what leaves the shop does not match a family cleanly. That is normal and it is not an upcharge conversation.
Start from the payload
- Mass, dimensions and power draw
- Where it has to point and how steadily
- Whether it changes weight in flight
- What it does to the aircraft's balance
Then the profile
- Area covered per sortie
- Height, speed and how close to obstacles
- Turnaround expected between flights
- Conditions it must still be usable in
Then the airframe
- Lift architecture and rotor or wing sizing
- Power system and thermal management
- Structure, materials and failure behaviour
- Service access for the parts that wear
Next step
Bring us the payload and the profile
We will tell you which family fits, what the trade-offs are, and where an off-the-shelf aircraft would serve you better than anything we would build.
