Transition Control
The hardest part of VTOL is transition. Our PX4-based firmware handles coordinate transformation and motor tilt angles dynamically.

Engineering Breakdown
System Substructures
Power Distribution
A high-discharge LiPo battery pack (6S) drives custom ESCs with optical isolation to keep electrical noise away from the sensors.
Environmental Sensing
Equipped with a downward-pointing optical flow sensor, lidars for altitude lock, and a modular bay for environmental mapping equipment.
Autonomous Navigation
Pre-planned waypoint missions are generated on the ground control station and uploaded via telemetry, enabling fully hands-off surveys.
