UMS SKELDAR has selected S-PLANE’s NX-SERIES Flight Control Unit (FCU) for all current and future Unmanned Aircraft (UA) platforms thanks to unmatched customer support and the class-leading certifiability, interoperability, and flexibility of their NX-SERIES FCUs, the company said.

S-PLANE has been UMS SKELDAR’s FCU supplier of choice since 2018 for both SKELDAR V-150 and V-200 platforms, with many successful installations.

 

 

“At UMS SKELDAR, we have developed two tactical unmanned platforms that are ahead of the legislative curve in many respects. Ensuring our UAS portfolio is fully certified by civil aviation authorities worldwide is of great importance for our company’s future product development strategy. We highly appreciate S-PLANE’s invaluable contribution throughout the development process. Working closely with our key suppliers such as S-PLANE, whose team are prepared to go the extra mile to support integrations, is imperative for continued succes,” said Joschka Höfling, Chief Product Officer at UMS SKELDAR.

 

 

“S-PLANE’s five-year relationship with UMS Skeldar has been a rewarding journey. We have incrementally enhanced our NX-FCU by flexibly meeting the technical and strategic requirements of their exceptional platforms. S-PLANE takes pride in its uncompromising stance towards customer support and quality. UMS Skeldar’s selection of the latest version of the NX-FCU for its future platforms is testimony to this and to the contribution that S-PLANE makes to the success of its customers,” said Thomas Jones, CEO of S-PLANE.

The NX-FCU provides fully redundant flight control, instrumentation/sensors, and communication integrated into one certification-ready and compact package of typically 1.4kg. Payload management and data routing is performed by the NX-FCU as it serves as an interface between aircraft payloads and sub-systems and ground control elements via its communication links.
