What Clients Says About Us

Tim has developed plane swarming, modified copter swarming and copter collision avoidance code for our company. For these projects Tim has been a pleasure to work with. Tims passion for Ardupilot comes through in his work, making him a joy to work with. Tim’s code when delivered has only required minor changes, decreasing the time and money spent to get the capability required onto a commercial job.

Tim’s Terrain Avoidance function running on our ArduPilot platforms has saved our planes. We fly in remote mountainous terrain and to collect good quality magentometry data for our clients, we have to fly close to the ground. When the ground gets too close the advanced logic that Tim has written will kick in to trigger evasive maneuvers which have saved our planes from crashing multiple times.

CEO

I've had the pleasure of working closely with Tim Tuxworth through the iART initiative, where his support and collaboration significantly advanced AIRmarket's efforts in integrating ArduPilot systems into our RTM framework. Tim’s technical acumen and steady contributions were especially valuable during our wildfire detection trials, where his work helped bridge real-time drone operations with mission-critical applications.
