Theta Aerospace designs and builds drones and the parts that go inside them: airframes, flight controllers, power electronics and propulsion. Two aircraft are flying. Two more are on the way.
Each aircraft is marked with where it stands today. Figures for aircraft still in development are design values and will be replaced with flight-test numbers.
Long-endurance VTOL for survey and mapping
Falcon takes off and lands vertically and cruises on its wing. The wings and tail detach, so a field team can carry it in a vehicle and assemble it on site.
Heavy-lift hexacopter
Lotus is the workhorse for jobs that need weight in the air: spraying, delivery and heavier sensors. Six rotors on a carbon-composite frame.
3.8 m VTOL quadplane
A long, slender wing on twin booms, four lift rotors for vertical take-off, and a V-tail. Albatross is in engineering validation: aerodynamics, stability and structures are being checked against the CAD before the build.
Series-hybrid long-endurance VTOL
Electric rotors lift it; a small petrol engine driving a pusher propeller carries it through cruise. If the engine stops, the battery brings it down vertically. Garuda-32 is a clean-sheet design and has not been built yet.
Aircraft from the workshops of our engineering team at Triterria: VTOLs, fixed wings, heavy multirotors and swarms.
We design the parts that decide how an aircraft flies, so they are not bought in as sealed boxes.
Wings, fuselages and frames for fixed-wing, multirotor and hybrid VTOL aircraft.
Custom autopilot boards, with a triple-redundant controller for larger aircraft in development.
The boards that feed and protect everything on the aircraft.
Carrier boards that put an AI computer next to the autopilot.
The software between the pilot's screen and the motors.
A four-stroke engine for hybrid aircraft, designed around Garuda-32.
Delivered with Triterria, our engineering partner. Bring a platform requirement, an integration problem or a product brief.
Custom aircraft from mission requirement to integrated prototype: airframe, payload, avionics and autopilot.
Autopilot firmware customisation, board integration, sensor drivers and ground control software.
Radio boards, radio firmware and antenna design for drone links and remote controls.
LiDAR, radar and cameras connected to robotics software, perception and control.
Structural design, aerodynamic optimisation, propulsion integration, prototyping and testing.
Circuit boards, embedded firmware, autonomy middleware and mission-planning software.
Computer vision, navigation, swarm control and sensor fusion that run on the aircraft.
Technical consulting, testing and validation, and support through DGCA approvals.
Projects from the Triterria portfolio, in the air, on the ground and under water.
Modular VTOL platforms with swappable wings and payload bays, plus heavy-drone tuning and development for VamaSky Light.
All-terrain ground robots with autonomous navigation, and underwater vehicles for inspection and mapping.
Thermal imaging and pattern recognition that flag unevenly loaded freight wagons. Client context: Indian Railways and Aerovania.
Drivers for inertial sensors, GPS, speed controllers, LiDAR, radar and radios across Linux, PX4, ArduPilot, ROS and ChibiOS.
Flight controllers, power distribution units and AI carrier boards designed in-house, with Boltz R&D.
Software that lets fleets of aircraft and robots coordinate, re-plan and keep working where GPS is not available.
The engineering team has spent more than eight years building mechanical systems, electronics, firmware and software for drones, ground robots and embedded products.
Its founding members have designed flight controllers, high-power speed controllers, motor architectures and power distribution systems, along with airframes for fixed-wing, multirotor and hybrid VTOL aircraft.
The team contributed to India's first DGCA Type Certification programme, and has worked on swarm coordination and collision avoidance using computer vision.
Building in India keeps the design authority, the repair skills and the spares close to the people who fly the aircraft.
Airframes are drawn, analysed and validated in-house: aerodynamics, stability, structures.
Carbon-composite structures are made and assembled in India.
Flight controllers, power boards and radios are designed by our own engineers.
Spares, repair and training from the same team that built the aircraft.
Write to us with the payload, the endurance you need and where the aircraft will operate. We will tell you which aircraft fits, or whether one of the designs in development is the better match.
