X-craft operates a diverse range of UAS including fixed wing, multirotor and hybrid VTOL aerial vehicles. As well as developing unique aircraft platforms, X-craft conducts many types of commercial field operations with a wide range of sensor payloads. We offer operations in utility services monitoring, forestry, wildlife monitoring and aerial survey. We also provide specialist aerial photography, photogrammetry or 3D ortho-mosaics as well as a range of non-optical sensor surveys. Standard payloads include, Infra-red (IR), multi-spectral imagery (MSI), LiDAR, radio tracking systems and custom communication relay systems.
X-craft also provides UAV repairs and maintenance services with strong, on-going logistical support to any system that we have either developed or deployed.
X-craft provides extensive consultancy services. With a strong background in R&D, X-craft has excellent international connections within the scientific community and therefore has a comprehensive knowledge of leading edge technologies. X-craft is particularly involved in developing complete system solutions, not just the hardware involved but the total information chain, identifying the data targets and maximising the information output. We start with accurately identifying the problem and develop the best possible solution.
X-craft has developed partnerships with several international companies who are specialists in componentry and payloads. This includes gimbal systems with various optical, infrared and non-optical elements such as the UKR Spec systems. This also includes ADS-B and RIB systems, communication relay, advanced hardware and software sensor systems. We have a wide range of rotary and fixed wing aircraft, including UKR Spec systems fixed wing and multirotor aircraft as well as VTOL systems developed by AltiUAS. In addition to this we undertake our own R&D projects for clients requiring specialist capability to develop custom aircraft solutions.
