Windracers ULTRA™ – The Jeep of the skies
Windracers ULTRA (Uncrewed Low-cost TRAnsport) was developed by Windracers in response to the need for a new type of cargo aircraft.
The idea: develop a robust and low-cost self-flying cargo aircraft capable of addressing the challenging logistics problems associated with delivering essential logistics efficiently to people who needed them in a timely fashion.
Windracers ULTRA is capable of carrying a payload of 100 kg up to 1000 km. The aircraft is designed in line with our Zero Single Point of Failure philosophy to rigorously eliminate all risk including avionics, communications and ground control.
Masterless™ Advanced Autopilot Technology
Windracers ULTRA is uncrewed and flies autonomously, controlled by Masterless, an advanced autopilot solution. Masterless is an entirely new architecture that provides best-in-class autopilot technology for aircraft in the world.
Masterless is extremely robust autopilot solution that adheres to our rigorous design philosophy.
