Fixed-Wing UAS
Design, construction, modification, repair and progressive flight-test development.
FIXED-WING UAS SYSTEMS
Designed to go further.
Built to be understood.
RGASS develops practical low-altitude fixed-wing UAS capability for payload support, training, systems integration and field-focused prototype development.
MISSION
Practical aircraft systems for real-world capability.
RGASS is focused on efficient fixed-wing aircraft, practical systems knowledge and structured training. The objective is not a sealed black-box product, but a platform that can be understood, maintained, adapted and tested.
Applications include humanitarian support, civil protection, emergency logistics, aerial observation, field training and technical demonstration.
CAPABILITY
One aircraft is only part of the system.
Autopilot Integration
ArduPilot and Pixhawk-class integration, mission planning, telemetry, RTL, failsafes and log review.
FPV & Control
Video links, RC systems, antennas, OSD, ground stations and field troubleshooting.
Payload Support
Mission-specific mounting concepts and structured testing for approved payloads.
Prototype Development
Fast, repairable demonstrator aircraft built to create measurable evidence rather than marketing claims.
Knowledge Transfer
Technical training for operators and technicians so users understand the complete system.
PLATFORM
Fixed-wing efficiency where distance matters.
Multicopters are excellent for hovering and vertical positioning. RGASS concentrates on missions where the aircraft needs to travel efficiently from point to point, carry useful equipment and return.
Current work is centred on modular electric fixed-wing concepts, practical airframe construction, field repairability and systems that can evolve through controlled testing.
TRAINING
Equipment matters. Understanding it matters more.
