Built to fly.
Built to fall.
Built to fly again.
High-quality, cost-effective, rapidly prototyped drone platforms spanning consumer FPV racing, commercial aerial imaging, and tactical combat applications — engineered from the ground up to be field-repairable, not disposable.
From service shop to
aerospace manufacturer
A deliberate three-stage climb — each phase funds and de-risks the next. Select a stage to see where we stand and where we're headed.
Services & Custom Builds
The foundation: hands-on craftsmanship and technical service work that funds our transition into manufacturing.
- High-end custom FPV drone assembly and tuning for racing, freestyle, and cinematic pilots
- Commercial aerial photography and videography for real estate, agriculture, and events
- High-precision photogrammetry with professional digital asset editing and delivery
Three people, one
obsession with flight
No department heads, no committees — just the three of us, each carrying a different piece of the problem.
Started soldering racing quads in a barracks garage while stationed overseas. Logged over 1,200 field repairs before founding Kestrel, and still can't resist rebuilding a customer's frame himself when the queue is slow.
Trained as a structural surveyor before discovering photogrammetry could do in an afternoon what used to take her crew three weeks with a total station. Now runs every mapping contract personally.
Left a cell-chemistry lab to chase a harder problem: energy density that survives a hard landing. Leading the push into hybrid-electric drivetrains and the solid-state research program.
