✦ UAV Systems
Hand-Built. Flight-Tested. AI-Augmented.
⚠️ Hobby project. I built this drone for personal engineering and learning. I am not a drone manufacturer, I do not sell drones, and I do not provide commercial drone services. This is a showcase of my hardware and edge AI work.
Custom 1500g carbon quadcopter hand-soldered from bare components. Initially flown on Betaflight, powered by ArduPilot, with onboard Raspberry Pi 5 edge vision AI in development. EASA A1/A3 certified, €2.6M insured.
