Unlock a broader, compliant flight envelope for your operations.
We help you optimise your operational Flight Envelope and Concept of Operations (ConOps) within SORA constraints.
We help UAS designers and OEMs optimise their operational concept and flight envelope within SORA constraints — including in Test and Evaluation environments.
UAS Test & Evaluation. UAS Testing sites
For manufacturers with platforms still in development, identifying viable test locations in a dense country like the UK is a real challenge. In the absence of extensive flight hours, higher-risk operations may be restricted to remote Test and Evaluation sites. Maintaining the ability to conduct routine development checks — low-speed, low-altitude, VLOS — at a site closer to base is operationally essential.
Did you know? It is possible to reverse-engineer SORA's ground risk models, demonstrate that your operations fall into a lower risk category than the standard tables indicate, and unlock the safety margin needed to operate at your preferred site.
This approach is particularly valuable for Test and Evaluation programmes. It is also accessible to OEMs and operators whose operations are penalised by a single risk driver — such as platform speed or size — and who can demonstrate they still meet the applicable Target Level of Safety.
Any UAS operator or Manufacturer
It is also accessible to OEMs and drone operators with operations that may be penalised by one criterion (speed, size) and could demonstrate they meet the target level of safety.
Outcome:
A ConOps that is expanded and compliant, commercially viable and scalable.
