BUILT
TO YOUR
SPEC.

We are a specialist manufacturer of custom composite unmanned aerial systems. Every airframe leaves our Cape Town facility engineered precisely to your mission requirements — no compromises, no off-the-shelf limitations.

Our Philosophy

EVERY
MISSION
IS UNIQUE.

We don't sell products from a catalogue. We design and manufacture unmanned aerial systems from the ground up around your payload, your operating environment, and your mission objectives. That approach demands deep aeronautical knowledge and a fully equipped in-house manufacturing facility — and that is exactly what we bring to the table.

Our airframes are hand-laid composite structures — a carefully balanced matrix of epoxy resin, E-glass, carbon fibre and aluminium. Every component is designed for the highest quality build, tested in our own facility before delivery, and supported by decades of combined fixed-wing flying experience.

We offer complete integration of your sensor payload, custom avionics configurations, and bespoke ground control solutions. If you can brief it, we can build it.

Platforms

AIRFRAME LINEUP

Three proven platforms. Configurable to your mission requirements — sensor payload, avionics suite, endurance, and launch method.

VALK UAV
// Platform 01 — Development Reference
VALK

Large-format fixed-wing developed for a university research programme. The airframe was flown under both electric and combustion propulsion, with VTOL integration on the roadmap. Development was suspended before full envelope testing was completed — funding stopped when the programme ended during Covid.

Shown here as a demonstration of our composite manufacturing capability at scale. We're open to conversations about a derivative design built on a cleaner aerodynamic foundation.

ENDURA UAV
// Platform 02
ENDURA

Compact long-range delta wing platform optimised for efficiency and low-infrastructure deployment. Single pusher configuration with iNav autopilot.

SCOUT UAV
// Platform 03 — Showcase
SCOUT

Tilt-rotor VTOL platform designed and manufactured entirely to client specification. Showcased here as an example of our custom build capability — hardware integration was completed by the client.

How We Work

FROM BRIEF TO
FLIGHT-READY

01 ——
Mission Brief

You define your operational requirements — payload, range, endurance, operating environment, and any constraints. We listen before we design.

02 ——
Design

Our team develops an airframe design tailored to your specification — aerodynamics, structural requirements, payload bay integration, and avionics architecture.

03 ——
Manufacture

Hand-laid composite construction in our Cape Town facility. Epoxy resin, E-glass, carbon fibre and aluminium — built to aerospace standards, every time.

04 ——
Test & Deliver

Every system is tested in our facility before handover. We provide full documentation, operator training, and ongoing technical support post-delivery.
