Wingtra’s Post

It's WingTip Wednesday, and today our training and certification manager, Ben Snyder, will take you through a quick overview of in-flight pause and resume features on WingtraOne. Why is this important? Because while WingtraOne is easy and autonomous, the rest of the world might not be. There can be times you need to change course, fast, and Wingtra gives you intuitive ways to do so. Check it out! And if you've been flying Wingtra and used these controls, feel free to share your stories in the comments. https://hubs.la/Q02SK_MB0 #dronedata #aerialinsights #WingtraOneGENII #VTOLdrone #mappingdrone #surveydrone

Ever wondered how public safety agencies are tackling the challenges of drone technology? 🚁🛡️ In the latest episode of DroneCast, I sit down with John McLeod to discuss the innovative world of counter-drone operations. Learn how we're using technology to: ✅ Enhance airspace security ✅ Collaborate across agencies ✅ Prepare for future drone challenges Plus, I share valuable insights on starting and managing counter-drone programs! #DroneCast #PublicSafety #CounterDrone #InnovationInSecurity

**Let's not normalise the #Exceptional** At Xplorate we are doing exceptional things every day and sometimes we tend to normalise them. What we do is not normal, it is exceptional. Ask most humans what they would think if they saw an unmanned Helicopter flying overhead collecting data to help the world and I would bet the reaction is "Wow". Here we see Xplorate's flagship SwissDrones #SDO50 flying onshore Beyond Visual Line of Sight in mixed airspace with traditional aircraft conducting commercial operations. To those in the know that is #Special. Many said it couldn't be done (I may have a list). Take note Manufacturers: There is no reason why not to offer ADSB In/Out with aircraft for #BVLOS operations that isn't "cost". Safety is Profitable.

Here's how it's changing the game: 🤖 Autonomous Operations: Smart systems guide the MQ-25 to aircraft needing fuel, ensuring precision and safety without human intervention. ⛽ Efficient Refueling: Performs high-efficiency mid-air refueling, enhancing operational flexibility and extending mission ranges. 🌐 Dual Capability: Though primarily for refueling, its stealth features enable secondary reconnaissance roles. 🛠️ Innovative Design: Sports a stealthy fuselage and V-tail to minimize radar detection, pushing the boundaries of unmanned aerial technology. 🚀Follow Ethen Laing for the Latest Insights in AI and Tech Innovations #AerospaceInnovation #UnmannedAircraft #MQ25 #FutureOfFlight #TechnologyTrends

Do your AVS studies look like this? Not sure what the smoke is trying to show, or whether what you are seeing is smoke or just a reflection? Come to the ISPE Aseptic Conference in Vienna on March 12,13 to hear the best practices to produce videos that are not just compliant, but helpful! https://lnkd.in/gMeiiHqD #aseptic #asepticprocessing #sterileprocessing #sterile #airflow # airflowvisualizationstudies #avs

The need to ensure safe integration of uncrewed aircraft into our airspace requires careful planning and strong cooperation, via a UTM that can integrate with other systems and enable a UTM ecosystem. One vital function available in AirShare is the integration with electronic and paper-based flight strips – providing ATCs in towers with info on filed flight plans by pilots. The AirShare system produces a flight strip 30 minutes before the logged start time of an uncrewed aircraft flight, and a flight termination strip – helping to provide airspace managers with an operational picture to reduce the risk from drones. #UTM #AAM #ATM #integration

"Some people call our original aircraft design a 'Star Wars speeder bike' or a 'motorcycle with wings.' We are flattered by that because we are used to seeing drones in the traditional sense carrying a camera, but now we're also seeing the other end of the spectrum, which is the air taxi segment. While there are companies creating air taxis, we trimmed it down to one person and a minimum feature set to get one person in the air."   John Manning is the founder and the director of development of ElectraFly, a startup working to make package delivery by drone and personal flight a reality.   https://lnkd.in/eeb9jDaJ   #DeepTech #Aviation #Flight #FlightTech #Technology #StarWars #Motorcycle #Drone #DroneDelivery | American Manufacturing Communities Collaborative (AMCC), 47G, Impossible Objects, Robert Carroll, AFWERX, United States Air Force, Utah State University, Federal Aviation Administration

Is this image confusing? Understanding this is an absolute necessity in my pre-flight routine. It provides all the crucial information I need to determine the feasibility of operating a UAV or drone at any film shoot location. This piece of the production puzzle is indispensable for aerial operations, acting as my guiding compass through airspace complexities. Did you know? Depending on the location, securing FAA authorization for flights within regulated airspace can take up to 90 DAYS. So, the next time you're seeking aerial coverage for your commercial, event, or creative project, consider the intricate process behind the scenes. Curious about the behind-the-scenes of aerial operations? Let's connect! Whether you're planning a commercial, event, or creative project, understanding the airspace is key.
