Welcome to Altispire..!

Well, this is it. The birth of my new startup.

Scared? You bet.

Excited? Immeasurably so.

I recently wrote a blog for one of my crazy adventures across the globe and, according to my audience, I have quite a talent for the written word. Whether or not that is true depends on who's reading it of course.

Please feel free to browse the site and get in touch with us if you'd like to explore your needs, discuss an idea or just plain chew the fat over how UAS technology, applications or wider public perceptions of unmanned technology is evolving.

We're happy to entertain media or academic requests for information on the UAS sector. It's all a part of spreading the word.

As I write this, Rob (our supplier in the Netherlands) assures me that Matilda, our new T12 UAS, will be arriving around the middle of next week. We've been dying to get our hands on this model for months as it represents a massive step forward in what a small UAS can do. It's state of the art FLIR TAU2 sensor payload will make critical imagery far more straightfoward for clients across a number of sectors

In the meantime, I'm busily preparing for the National Railway Industry Association's Unlocking Innovation Conference in Milton Keynes on December 2nd. Transport is just one of the areas that we're interested in as we feel that we can make massive inroads into the cost of aerial surveying, particularly for fault finding in electrical systems.
