About Robinson Unmanned
Robinson Unmanned develops aircraft for inspection, mapping, logistics and government missions. The business combines Ascent AeroSystems' compact coaxial drones with larger uncrewed rotorcraft work derived from Robinson Helicopter platforms.
Ascent's cylindrical Spirit and larger NX30 use coaxial rotors for a small transport footprint and payload flexibility, carrying cameras, sensors or cargo. Robinson's manufacturing and rotorcraft engineering support expansion toward heavier, longer-range systems and custom integrations. The portfolio addresses operations that need greater endurance or payload than consumer multirotors can provide.
