  • Release: triggered by balloon popping or at predefined altitude, up to 30 km.
  • Flight: capable of 100 km+ flight from point of balloon release. Waypoints (lat, long, alt) supported. Fully autonomous.
  • Landing: defaults to launch site or any point within a 100 km radius of predicted release.
  • Pricing: you pay only for successful flights. If we lose your payload, we replace it and fly again at our cost.
  • Options: remote data transmission during flight, coordinated multiple launches, etc.—if you want to fly it, we'll try it!
