Windracers, Distributed Avionics, British Antarctic Survey, University of Bristol, The University of Sheffield, Helix Technologies and Lancashire Fire & Rescue Service are working together to develop a live demonstration for uncrewed aerial survey problems. The Windracers ULTRA uncrewed platform has undergone several trials where it was used to carry carg...

This project aims to create and demonstrate digital infrastructure and operational procedures that will allow safe and efficient shared airspace. Recent BVLOS projects have focused on operating in Temporary Danger Areas (TDAs) which are both temporary, closed off to other airspace users, so are not scalable. Operations in temporary airspace do not allow o...

ATOMICUS will deliver a significant pragmatic step towards safe operation of unmanned aircraft logistics by enabling integration with regional airfield operations. The approach of data based integration with existing physical infrastructure, will enable unlocking of significant cost savings and productivity gains in the logistics market. This project aims...

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have the potential to become a reality for civil applications such as the transport of goods, aid delivery, or firefighting. The ULTRA unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by Windracers is currently being tested to transport COVID-19 medical supplies to the Isle of Wight for example. It is a large, double engine, fix win...

In order to deal with key challenges facing mankind, the future of aviation must change radically. Reduction of emissions, more electric aircraft, and autonomous systems are essential to meet these challenges. Autonomous drones will be increasingly used for commercial applications such as delivery of medicines, remote community logistics, and electric pow...
