Orbital UAV flight testing program

The partnership between Insitu Pacific and Orbital UAV continues to expand on the capabilities of Orbital UAV’s Australian designed and built N20 engine series. With the rapid pace of change in Remotely Piloted Aircraft System technology, it is vital for our defence customers to have a strong Australian industry base and maintain local cutting edge capability. Over 300 hours of flight testing was recently achieved at Insitu Pacific’s testing and training facility in Queensland, and this partnership is a powerful example of growing local, world-leading Australian Industry Capability. While Insitu Pacific has been flight testing its own unique payload designs and customer deliveries for the past 10 years, the activity with Orbital UAV is contributing important new performance and life-cycle data for the ScanEagle® product line globally, and is supporting the continuous drive to innovate and define leading unmanned aircraft systems into the next decade.

Local development of revolutionary payloads to survey large areas

Insitu Pacific’s continual innovation to enhance payload accuracy and survey data has led to the development of revolutionary payloads including High Accuracy Photogrammetry (HAP) and a Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) system.

The HAP payload includes an extremely accurate position and timing system interfaced with a 100-megapixel camera for accurate insights across large survey areas.
