Empowering Safety


Our safety culture is proactive, with a "stop-the-line" policy that empowers all flight team members to report potential safety issues. This is supported by a swift escalation process for immediate categorization and resolution of concerns, ensuring that safety is paramount. We also provide in-house training for our technicians, fostering expertise in drone repairs and maintenance to guarantee the highest operational standards.

Ensuring technical excellence


Every outdoor show is staffed with a certified UAS technician, ensuring technical excellence and immediate problem-solving capabilities. Additionally, we uphold a strict regimen for maintaining and calibrating the hardware and software of our drones. We perform comprehensive flight checks on all drones at least once a month, certifying their airworthiness and readiness for flight. This diligence ensures our drone light shows are not only spectacular but are also conducted with an unwavering commitment to safety and reliability.

Flight Systems Testing


The reliability and integrity of our drones is paramount. Our Flight Systems Testing section is dedicated to rigorous assessment and evaluation of each drone to maintain peak performance. This involves thorough testing of drone reliability, attitude stability, and fuselage integrity.

Drone Reliability Testing:

We subject our drones to extensive trials to ensure they can consistently perform under various conditions. This includes testing for endurance, responsiveness, and overall operational dependability.

Attitude Stability Testing:

Precision is key in our light shows. We conduct detailed attitude testing to ensure each drone maintains accurate orientation and stability during flight, essential for executing complex aerial maneuvers and formations.

Fuselage Integrity Testing:

The structural integrity of our drones is critical for safety and performance. We perform comprehensive fuselage testing to check for any weaknesses or vulnerabilities, ensuring each drone is robust and capable of withstanding the demands of our dynamic shows.

Through these rigorous testing procedures, we guarantee that our drones meet the highest standards of quality and reliability, providing you with spectacular and safe aerial displays every time.
