Peregron Aerospace is developing an autonomous tailsitter aircraft that takes off vertically and flies like a fixed-wing plane for surveying and mapping.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-13 issue.

Field notes

Peregron describes a tailsitter configuration that combines vertical launch and recovery with fixed-wing travel, using twin electric motors and PX4 flight control. Its stated test sequence has four phases: vertical, transition, forward flight, and landing. The site also records a practical development chain from airframe geometry and mesh or flow studies through CAD-to-CAM manufacture and prototype testing. A separate ground-station concept would bring mission planning, aircraft status, and survey progress into one field view, but the page labels that software as still in development.
