Development at the Edge of the Atmosphere
The Aeronautical Regional Geospatial Observer System (ARGOS) is a light-weight, solar-powered, propeller-driven flying wing with vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capability, designed to operate autonomously in the lower stratosphere.
ARGOS is evolving through a series of incremental upgrades and flight tests to culminate in the deployment of a fully operational uncrewed aerial system (UAS) capable of high-altitude long-endurance (HALE) missions lasting months.
Our Design Philosophy
- Minimum viable product
- Modularity for extensibility
- Incremental prototyping
- Test over analysis
- Fail fast
