UAV Navigation

UAV Navigation is a privately-owned company that has specialized in the design of flight control solutions for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) since 2004.

UAV Navigation's flight control solutions are used by a variety of Tier 1 aerospace manufacturers in a wide range of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) - also known as Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) or 'drones'. These include high-performance tactical unmanned planes, aerial targets, mini-UAVs and helicopters.

The Company's autopilots carry out advanced functions, such as controlling multiple target drones at 700 km/h, a fully automatic net landing of a drone onto a moving vessel at sea and converting a twin prop manned aircraft or turbine helicopter into a drone.

The cornerstone of the Company's success is a comprehensive, in-house capability to develop Attitude & Heading Reference Systems (AHRS), flight control algorithms and to fuse the data provided by multiple sensors (GPS, airspeed, magnetometers, gyroscopes, accelerometers etc). The autopilots are characterized by their reliability and robustness, with over 60,000 flight hours in all kinds of weather and on all kinds of platform.

If you have a vehicle or platform (aerial, ground or water based) and you need to know its exact attitude, position and relative velocity, then UAV Navigation has the answer. A multinational team of experts with backgrounds as diverse as aerospace, microelectronics, aeronautical engineering and military defence technology brings control solutions to new markets.

Founded in 2004, UAV Navigation is an ISO 9001:2015-certified company with a worldwide distributor network.
