The Certification Datapack and MoCs for SAIL I-V are available to support Type Certification, EASA eVTOL SC and other international programs, with ETSO certification in progress.

  • No single point of failure

    Hardware architecture is designed with consideration for the avoidance of single points of failure. It ensures fail-safe and fail-operational capability, maintaining flight control even in the event of faults in any component, including the arbiter board managing redundancy.

Extended Communications

Extended Communications

Veronte Autopilot 4x includes a wide variety of inputs and outputs. RS232, RS485, CAN Bus, I2C, PWM, Analog, Digital I/O… are available and can be easily configured for interfacing with all kinds of devices. The Veronte CEX module is designed for large vehicles so the number of I/O available can be easily expanded and complex system architectures can be defined.

LOS, BLOS & fleet management

Multiple communication channels are supported, with the ability to manage multiple drones and control stations operating simultaneously. The internal 4G modem enables BLOS communications without extra hardware. External LOS, 4G/LTE, Satcom or Starlink terminals can also be integrated to provide unlimited-range connectivity.

Advanced Flight Control

Sense & Avoid

Sense & Avoid

Veronte Autopilot includes avoidance algorithms for the automatic evasion of obstacles nearby. The obstacle detection can be feed with the embedded ADS-B/Remote ID module or through an external source such as radar or vision.

GNSS Denied Operations

GNSS Denied Operations

Position estimation algorithms merge INS with wind estimation and other sensors in reducing the position drifting in the event of a GNSS loss. It can be merged with external data sources to improve the position accuracy with no GNSS signal.

Companion Computer

Companion Computer

For applications requiring advanced computing power or communications with external computers, such as custom user interfaces, Veronte Autopilot uses STANAG 4586. Simpler devices can be interfaced with custom message tools.

Peripheral compatibility

Veronte Autopilot 4x is agnostic to external peripherals, supporting Serial, CAN Bus, PWM and other common interfaces. Custom messaging tools allow seamless integration with third-party devices such as sensors, actuators, mission computers, etc.

Advanced autonomy, safety, and integration capabilities

A powerful suite of flight control features for certifiable eVTOL and UAV platforms, including GNSS-denied navigation, fleet management, mission computer integration, and advanced sensor fusion.

GNSS-denied navigation

Enables safe flight in environments where GNSS is unavailable or compromised. Uses internal IMU, barometer, and airspeed sensors, with optional external aids such as Veronte VBN, FOG IMU or third-party systems to estimate position. Ensures stable flight and mission continuity with reduced drift, even in degraded or denied GNSS environments.

Autonomous takeoff and landing

Enables autonomous takeoff, landing, and flight from ground or moving sea vehicles. Relative missions can be defined so the drone follows the control station on a vessel or vehicle. Combined with Rendezvous algorithms and optional high-precision relative positioning sensors, it enables accurate landings even in GNSS-denied environments.

Fly-by-camera control

Allows the aircraft to follow the pointing direction of the onboard camera. The system translates camera movement into flight vectors, enabling intuitive flight path control by the camera operator, ideal for ISR or precision imaging missions.

Sense and avoid integration

Integrates external sensors such as ADS-B, radar, LiDAR or EO/IR cameras to detect surrounding traffic or obstacles. Enables avoidance logic to modify flight paths or trigger failsafe behaviors, ensuring safe integration into shared or dynamic airspace.

Custom programs

Includes a visual programming and C++ environment to define custom operations and control logics. Functions, automatic routines, sensor inputs, and actuator outputs can be combined without modifying source code, maintaining compliance with DO178C and certification standards.

Automated mission sequences

Operators can define mission phases with associated behaviors and triggers. Automatically changes routes, modes, or payload actions in response to conditions like altitude, battery level, or waypoint arrival, enabling 100% automation.

Embedded ADS-B or Remote ID

Provides onboard functionality for cooperative traffic awareness and regulatory compliance. The internal ADS-B or Remote ID modules (In & out) enable real-time position broadcast and reception. Enhances detect-and-avoid capabilities and meets global UAS & eVTOL operational standards.

Fleet management and swarming

Supports coordinated flight between multiple vehicles, including leader-follower and relative missions. Real-time communication between units enables dynamic tasking and management from a single or multiple control stations.

Mission computer integration

Interfaces with onboard mission computers for extended capabilities. Using Veronte VCP / STANAG 4586, external systems can send high-level commands, receive real-time data, and execute advanced autonomy algorithms while preserving certified flight core integrity.

GNSS attitude estimation

Dual GNSS antennas enable heading and attitude estimation independently from the magnetometer. This increases robustness against magnetic interference and enhances performance during takeoff, transition, and GNSS-degraded conditions.
