Service-Drone Flying Smart with VirtualAirBoss™

San Francisco – MULTIROTOR Service-drone, a European market leader in the field of professional unmanned aerial systems (UAS), announced an agreement with SmartC2 Inc., to distribute the VirtualAirBoss™ business operations software along with Service-drone’s portfolio of UAS models.

“Service-drone vehicles together with the VirtualAirBoss is a winning combination,” according to Stephan Feldhoff, board member and VP International Operations, for Service-drone. “Service-drone technology provides the vehicle and the flight controls, and VirtualAirBoss software provides the asset scheduling, data management, and reporting before and after they fly. We believe that our customers will appreciate a comprehensive and elegant software to manage their business operations.”

“There is good reason they are a leading drone manufacturer. Service-drone products are widely known for their reliability, unmatched flight stability, and easy maneuverability,” according to Stuart Rudolph, President of SmartC2. Aircrafts of MULTIROTOR Service-drone can securely carry payloads from 1 to 20 pounds (500g to 10 KG) and are capable to operate at heavy weather conditions with winds up to 5 bft (15 m/s) that would keep other drones on the ground.

According to Service-drone managing director, Oliver Knittel, “commercial and government users are using our drones on a daily basis to help them with their business, solve their problems and – last but not least – generate revenue. We believe that integrating the VirtualAirBoss to help customers also manage their business operations will add significant value to our vehicle and flight control product offerings. We believe that VirtualAirBoss will also provide us with a competitive advantage.

Whether our customers are using drones for measurement, inspection, surveillance, filming or other commercial purposes, these operations generate a large volume of data that must be managed properly to result in profitable missions. Service-drone believes that its user-base will quickly adopt the VirtualAirBoss software to manage their flight and payload data effectively.”

“This agreement with Service-drones and VirtualAirBoss is evidence that the UAS industry is maturing. Here’s a leading drone manufacturer offering a business tool that will help its customers schedule assets, manage data, simplify reporting, and monetize their drone operations,” says Stuart Rudolph, President of SmartC2.

“It’s appropriate that we announce this agreement at the 2015 Small Unmanned Systems Business Expo,” says Phillip von Meyenburg, distributor of Service-drone in the Asia Pacific market, “because it is an event focused on small UAS business, the same topic as our agreement.”
