Service 05
Integration & upgrade of existing platforms
New capabilities and open standards on an aircraft you already own.
We replace or integrate autopilot, payload and communication links on existing drones: migration to a PX4 stack, new sensors, updated connectivity and safety devices to operate in the Specific category.
Strengths
- Migration from closed systems to PX4 / ROS 2, with full data access
- Integration of new-generation optical, thermal or LiDAR sensors
- Installation of Direct Remote ID and, where required, flight termination systems
- Overhaul of the propulsion group and wiring
Getting more from what you already have
Technological and regulatory change should not make past investments obsolete:
- Open standards — we remove the constraints of closed platforms to open up data access and allow the integration of custom software.
- Updated payloads — we redesign mounts and stabilised supports to host current sensors.
- Regulatory alignment — we install the devices required for Specific-category operations and update the aircraft documentation.
Typical deliverables
- Modified aircraft, verified in flight
- Updated wiring diagrams and a record of the changes
- Technical report supporting operational authorisations
