Safety

Safety is the first subsystem.

Nothing flies until it is safe. Our procedures, interlocks and compliance are designed in from the first drawing, not bolted on before the competition.

Nothing skipped, every flight.

This is the real field card. Tick each item the way the crew does before every flight.

FAA registration printed, number on the airframe

Props inspected, arc clear, area called
Geofence and return-to-launch point loaded
Both telemetry links and RC backup checked
Payload servos safed until weight-off-wheels

If the link drops.

Hold position, keep the mission state

Ready for the bad day.

Every field session carries the same kit: a fire extinguisher, a LiPo guard bag for charging and transport, and a first aid kit. We plan for the day nothing goes wrong, and pack for the day something does.

The LiPo guard charging bag and the first aid kit from the field safety kit, laid out

Sorted fastener trays, thread locker, and bonding adhesive laid out for the build

By the book, on purpose.

FAA registration: Aircraft registered, number displayed
Remote ID: Broadcast module active in flight
Safety pilot: TRUST-certified, hands ready to take over
No cloud dependency: Flight-critical functions run on the field, not the internet
Frequency plan: Links coordinated to avoid the judges’ radios
