Jon Broome, Co-Founder and CEO of Vertiq, discloses the company’s lifetime testing method, determining the life expectancy of its modules under realistic operating conditions.
The company has created a lifetime test that incorporates characteristics of typical drone operation such that one hour of testing is equal to one hour of flight time.
Vertiq’s goal is to create the longest lasting motors and ESCs on the market. Data from lifetime testing allows the company to iterate on designs to further improve the reliability and longevity of the product. These tests also allow Vertiq to state an expected lifetime with a high degree of confidence.
By disclosing its lifetime testing method, Vertiq hopes it will give customers an equal amount of confidence in the published lifetime expectations.
