UAV SYSTEMS is more of a business resource rather than just an aerial service provider.Our RPAS solutions include sourcing key software and multispectral cameras & sensors (LiDAR scanning, IR etc).   Our safe and cost-effective methods of drone aerial imaging and remote inspection / sensing serve as a unique business tool with unlimited applications, reducing the risks and costs associated with operating full-size manned aircraft. We carefully analyse our customer requirements and tailor unique aerial solutions to strict Quality control. Our customer solutions include UAV / UAS / RPAS training and seamless integration of unmanned aerial systems into existing business infrastructure.

A portable ground based TV monitor and wireless down-link allow customers to view real-time (live) imaging of a pre-determined target area. The various remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) can safely take-off and land in small areas where full-scale aircraft cannot practically operate. We can aslo coordinate joint flight operations between manned and unmanned aircraft to meet certain objectives.   Some of our UAV’s solutions can be deployed in as little as 5 minutes minimising costly resources and bulky ground support equipment. No expensive and bulky launch & recovery systems are required.
