Windracers ULTRA
Your mission. Delivered.
Built to deliver dependably and cost-effectively in the toughest environments, connecting people to what they need and want.
Pioneering a new era in middle-mile logistics
Windracers ULTRA brings together advanced aircraft technology, integrated autopilot systems and mission control software and operational services that draw on best practices from military and civil aviation.
Designed and built to take on a variety of roles across diverse environments, Windracers ULTRA has completed missions in seven countries on three continents, from isolated communities in North America to reconnaissance and resupply in Ukraine.
With a useful payload of up to 150kg and a range of up to 1,000km, Windracers ULTRA provides autonomous air cargo drone transport to places where infrastructure is limited and costs are high.
Aircraft that Defies Limits
At the heart of the Windracers ULTRA platform is the Windracers ULTRA cargo aircraft, designed explicitly for heavy-lift operations without the hefty price tag. Unlike smaller cargo drones with limited capacity and range, ULTRA is an unmanned aerial vehicle that handles heavy loads across middle-mile distances and for extended endurance.
A rugged fixed-wing build means the ULTRA can master even the harshest weather. It has proven successful in the sub-zero temperatures of Antarctica, as well as the wind and rain of the North Atlantic, and is set to expand operations into Africa soon.
Powered by standard fuel and designed for fast turnaround on the ground, ULTRA is the go-to solution for transporting goods in areas where road infrastructure is poor or non-existent.
Every aspect of ULTRA has been engineered and constructed with high redundancy, ensuring minimal risk of failure so you can rely on it, no matter the circumstances.

Windracers ULTRA MK2 Launched!
More Power. More Payload. Easier to Use. More Robust.
Software that puts you in control
Windracers ULTRA is guided by Windracers Autopilot, which seamlessly executes flights created and planned through Windracers Mission Control™. Windracers ULTRA software is powered by Windracers Masterless and is based upon a Zero Single Points of Failure philosophy. It’s no wonder that Windracers ULTRA was the first unpiloted aircraft to successfully land, deliver to, and take off from a British Navy aircraft carrier.
Windracers Mission Control™
Windracers Mission Control Software plans the mission, works with Windracers Autopilot to provide real-time feedback on the aircraft’s status, and controls the mission. Mission Control enables operators to modify or change missions as needed quickly, even during flight.
Windracers Autopilot™
Windracers Autopilot onboard software guarantees that ULTRA safely navigates harsh conditions and reliably carries out complex missions.
