Vector Technics’ high-efficiency BLDC motors are manufactured from aerospace-grade aluminium, high-efficiency electro steel, and high-temperature N42SH neodymium magnets, ensuring maximum performance and durability. Built for low vibration and high thermal stability, the product range offers compact formats for coaxial and tilt-rotor systems.

These cutting-edge motors have been proven on a range of platforms including 50+ kg quadcopters used for last-mile delivery, and fixed-wing drones with long-endurance capabilities of over 2.5 hours.

Vector Technics’ trapezoidal and FOC waveform ESCs (electronic speed controllers) are designed to provide precise control of brushless motors with the utmost of efficiency, and are ideal for high-performance UAV applications requiring high levels of stability. Featuring regenerative braking and adaptive load control, they provide native telemetry for easy integration with major drone autopilot ecosystems.

The rugged motor controllers are housed in IP-rated all-aluminium enclosures, able to operate under all weather conditions and in harsh industrial environments.

The company’s advanced drone propellers are made from carbon fibre-reinforced nylon and feature excellent aerodynamic efficiency and low audible signatures thanks to extensive research, development, modelling and testing. The durable and UV-resistant propellers are foldable to allow convenient transportation and storage.

The product range includes propeller sizes from 7″ to 60+”.

The FlightCore Power Distribution Board (PDB) is specifically designed for high-performance UAV applications, providing clean regulated DC power output for avionics, electronic speed controllers and other electrical subsystems and allowing you to simplify your designs and wiring harnesses.

The high-efficiency board features EMI filtering and surge protection and is easily integrated into a wide variety of UAV designs, delivering high-quality power management and prolonged flight times.

Vector Technics’ DC-DC converters provide efficient power conversion for payloads and avionics, featuring high-efficiency and low-thermal design and EMI-shielded encapsulation.

Delivering precision voltage stability under variable load, they are suitable for powering a wide range of onboard sensors and equipment including edge computing platforms, LiDAR scanners, and dual-camera ISR gimbals.
