The smallest Indian made drone is already gaining a significant fan following among Army units, thanks to the fact that it is the only aatmanirbhar drone that is a direct replacement of the world renowned Chinese DJI drones in terms of performance and price that were being used by them over the past 4-5 years for the want of an Indian alternative.

Speaking at the event, Venkatesh Sai, Founder and Technical Director of ZUPPA Geo Navigation Technologies, the developer of Ajeet Mini, said, “We are able to make this world class product only because of our proprietary, DPCC computing architecture and the complete end to end control our company has over the core of the technology, right from PCB design to manufacturing including every algorithm at firmware and software layers of the product.”

Various DRDO establishments and drone makers have started adopting NavGati in place of open source autopilots like Pixhawk because of its ability to enhance the security, integrity and reliability of their products being a complete end to end closed loop control system for unmanned use cases. Customers using Zuppa’s plug and fly autopilot solutions lower integration and tech support costs that is normally an unavoidable side effect of using open-source systems.

ZUPPA’s proprietary computing architecture “SYSTEM OF DISSEMINATED PARALLEL CONTROL COMPUTING IN REAL TIME” has positioned Ajeet Mini as the only Indian contender for off the shelf micro drones like the Chinese DJIs. India’s smallest Autopilot ZUPPA NavGati is at the very core of Ajeet Mini and is the key reason for it being the only company in India to have risen to challenge global drone majors like DJI , Skydio etc.

ZUPPA is in the process of expanding both its drones and plug and fly autopilot solutions to cater to the ever increasing demand for its products across both the civilian and defence drone ecosystems.
