Square Parachute Recovery Systems

The Square (SQR) Family takes recovery capability to the next level by offering significant advantages through its superior aerodynamic design. These systems feature enhanced stability, precise landing control, and superior wind resistance.

The higher drag coefficient and larger projected area result in lower descent rates and minimized landing impact, while faster canopy inflation enables safe deployment at lower altitudes. The square design naturally provides better self-stabilization, reducing oscillations during descent and ensuring controlled, accurate landings. These combined features make the SQR Family a reliable and efficient choice for UAV recovery operations where precision and performance are crucial.

Advanced Parachute Launching System (PLS)

Drone Parachute Launching SystemOur PLS represents a breakthrough in recovery system deployment technology, combining reliable operation with a compact, lightweight design that minimizes impact on UAV performance. Unlike traditional pyrotechnic systems, our spring-based mechanism offers significant advantages in terms of safety, reliability, and ease of use.

Key aspects of the PLS include its ability to operate at low altitudes, simple repacking and reinstallation process, and consistently low sink rate that minimizes impact energy during landing. The system incorporates redundant safety features, ensuring reliable deployment even in challenging conditions. This combination of advanced engineering and practical functionality makes the PLS an ideal choice for operators who demand the highest levels of reliability and performance.
