Drone USA, Inc. and Empirical Systems Aerospace, Inc. (ESAero) have entered into a strategic partnership, where ESAero will help Drone USA in its development of unmanned systems.

“This partnership is the perfect marriage of resources between two companies with complementary attributes,” said ESAero’s President Andrew Gibson in a press release.

“Drone USA arrives with a superior set of products, and with a world-class team, responsible for the success of some of the largest UAV companies in the marketplace. Our ability to optimize and customize their portfolio for specific market sectors complements Drone USA’s national and international reach to generate an optimal operational manifesto.”

As a part of the partnership, Drone USA will work at ESAero’s new company headquarters in San Luis Obispo, California. Drone USA’s portfolio of UAS ranges from fixed-wing aircraft to UAS with vertical-takeoff-and-landing (VTOL) capabilities.

Drone USA’s CEO Mike Bannon said, “Andrew and the team at ESAero have created a company that stands head and shoulders above most in UAV technological competencies and by leveraging ESAero’s superior capabilities, we now possess an all-inclusive and advanced infrastructure in North America.”

Recently, ESAero worked on NASA’s 3,000-pound electric flight demonstrator known as the X-57. The X-57, nicknamed “Maxwell,” is NASA’s first manned experimental rocket in about 30 years.
