Payload integration

Mechanical, electrical, and software interfaces that stay coherent through bench, ground, and flight.

How we approach Payload integration

Payload integration is where many UAV programs stall: connectors, harness routing, EMI, and software drivers must align with mass and CG constraints. We draft interface control documents and bench plans before flight exposure.

Power sequencing, inrush limits, and brownout recovery are specified alongside mechanical mounts and isolation.

For modular payloads, we define latching, alignment, and configuration reporting so ground crews can swap safely under time pressure.

Interfaces you can maintain

Every payload gets a bill of tests: bench, ground, and flight - with clear ownership for anomalies.

Connector and harness derating aligned to vibration class.
Software versioning that matches hardware revs in the field.
Thermal and EMI budgets shared across vendors.
