FANG™ is a First Person View small UAS that puts the operator directly in the cockpit with full manual control. Built as a lower-cost flying camera system, it enables repetitive training and mission execution without the expense of higher-end platforms.

Low cost. Reusable. Retrievable. Made in the USA.

Choose an airframe and a mission configuration

Nine variants across three airframe sizes and three mission configurations. Pick both and the exact part is written into your quote request with its SKU, so procurement receives a specific aircraft rather than a category.

FANG Payload and Digital coming soon. Available for early procurement.

THE FIRST NDAA-COMPLIANT FPV DRONE FOR TRAINING AND TACTICAL OPERATIONS

A retrievable airframe changes what training costs, and training is what makes an FPV operator effective.

Built for performance, designed for access

Reliability and readiness at a fraction of the cost

AFFORDABILITYOne of the lowest-cost families of NDAA-compliant FPV aircraft available.

RETRIEVABLE AND REUSABLERecoverable after missions or training, which lowers total cost of ownership.

HANDS-ON CONTROLNon-autonomous flight keeps the pilot fully engaged. Hands at 10-2.

The line

Three airframes, three configurations

The airframe sets the envelope. The configuration sets the job. Every combination is available, which is why the configurator resolves to a specific SKU rather than to a family name.

Control

Manually flown, by design

FANG™ is not autonomous. The controller provides precise dual-stick manual operation designed for hands-at-10-2 engagement, with secure low-latency communication giving the pilot direct tactile control over every manoeuvre. The rugged ergonomic design supports extended training sessions as well as operational use.

Nothing in the system selects or engages a target. The operator flies the aircraft.
