Australian drone manufacturer Carbonix has partnered with Skyports Drone Services to scale beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations across the country using Carbonix’s long-range vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft.

Skyports Drone Services will embed specialist international drone pilots within Carbonix to boost operational capabilities and enable the company to scale its infrastructure inspection services.

The partnership will assist with the ramp up of BVLOS operations in the region and enable them to serve the strong demand in the local UAV market.
