As the summer sun beckons us outdoors, drone enthusiasts everywhere are ready to take to the skies, capturing breathtaking views and enjoying the thrill of flight. But with this excitement comes the responsibility to ensure that our aerial actions are both safe and legal. Whether you’re a seasoned pilot or a newcomer eager to explore the world from above, here are 5 summer drone safety tips that are essential to remember.   1. Keep an eye on the temperature. Rising temps mean many things both for you and your aircraft. From the electronics and sensors to batteries and props, all of the components on your drone have to work harder when the air heats up. Some video transmitters will stop working when overheated and batteries are also at risk of suffering permanent damage if their temperatures get too high. So, keep your flight times short and concise. Plan for frequent breaks and cool down times between sorties. Be careful of overheated batteries or motors when handling the aircraft. And never leave your drone or batteries in a hot car.   2. Be wary of moisture. Ever noticed how your glasses might fog up when you leave air conditioning to go outside in the summer? That’s about how it works with any other kind of closed space… including camera lenses and internal equipment. Give your aircraft time to adjust to temperature changes to avoid moisture condensation and take note of humidity levels to determine when is good to fly.   3. Stand out and away from crowds and events. Everyone wants to get outside to enjoy the nice weather and, most of the time, the crowds are also right where you want to be! Not only are they potentially in the way of your flight path, but they also might be interested in what you are doing. Remember that you are always responsible for the safe handling and flight of your drone. Understand your drone’s flight path, speed, battery drain, etc. and keep distractions to a minimum. Follow all  FAA Guidelines for Operations Over People  and be sure to always keep safety as the top priority.   4. Your safety is key. What is more important than the drone? The operator, of course! Make sure to take care of yourself when out flying in the heat. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and be sure to wear appropriate gear (hats and moisture-wicking clothes are a must). Always keep a safety kit with your gear and be sure to add in sunscreen, bug spray, and ice packs to help stay comfortable during the summer months. While sunglasses are important for eye safety, make sure that they never impede your ability to keep an eye on your aircraft or have a clear view of your controller screen.   5. Don’t skimp on filters. A good tool to have year-round, but especially during the summer when there is more time in the day to take advantage of the sunlight, neutral density (ND) filters can help capture the clearest shot or help deliver on the artistic effect you are hoping for. For those extra sunny days, be sure to use an ND16 or higher or consider a polarizing filter. Since manufacturers can vary – be sure to test out your different filters before committing to a shot! The goal is to have the clearest filter  for  your drone, so you can have the clearest picture  from  your drone.   By following these 5 summer drone safety tips, you’ll be well-prepared to enjoy your warm weather adventures to the fullest. Keeping an eye on temperature, being mindful of moisture, steering clear of crowds, prioritizing personal safety, and using the right filters are all critical to ensure your flights are smooth and trouble-free. So, gear up, stay safe, and let your drone soar to new heights this summer! To never miss a beat on the latest news and blogs, follow us on Social Media and  Subscribe to our email list !

While much of the discussion around the Central New York economy has been centered on semiconductor giant Micron opening a new plant outside of Syracuse, the unmanned aerial system, or drone, industry and the growing advanced air mobility industry have been cementing themselves as key parts of the region’s economic ecosystem.

In a world where technology continually pushes boundaries, the sky is no longer the limit. As uncrewed aircraft navigate our airspace, safety must always remain a priority. At NUAIR, we are committed to ensuring that where innovation takes flight, safety is of paramount importance. In the ever-expanding skies where innovation knows no bounds, our journey into the realm of uncrewed aviation is both thrilling and transformative. As we mark  Drone Safety Day  this weekend, it is not only a day to reflect on the advancements of technology but also to celebrate the heroes who navigate this frontier with diligence and care – our responsible and safe UAS pilots. But being a drone pilot goes beyond just operating a machine; it requires a deep understanding of regulations, protocols, and best practices. One of the integral members of the NUAIR team, Russell Holland is a seasoned drone pilot at NUAIR and here provides additional insights into the daily rigor of operations. Discussing one of his most challenging flights—a 50-mile journey beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) from Syracuse Airport to Griffiss in Rome, NY—he explains, “as with all flights, everything is based on a safety culture. Planning took place over the course of years, requiring permissions for BVLOS flights in each area and only after extensive testing of radars to ensure no conflict with general aviation flights.” This meticulous approach to planning and execution underscores the depth of commitment to safety at NUAIR. Reflecting on his comprehensive training with NUAIR, Russell notes, “a lot of what we do is experimental, but all is approached with a ‘crawl, walk, run’ philosophy that minimizes risk.” When asked about handling unexpected situations like sudden weather changes, Russell states, “whether weather or equipment malfunctions, there is always a Plan B… and usually C and D as well. They may include an alternate flight plan, taking manual control of an automated flight, landing in place, or even terminating the flight and losing the drone if that is the only way to ensure safety.” Russell also contributes valuable insights into the technological advances enhancing safety in drone operations. He notes, “optical sensors have made a big difference in safety, especially for indoor flights. In-flight pilot point-of-view cameras keep improving with huge increases in telephoto clarity, and thermal imaging has added a great deal of capability and new uses for drones.” These technological advancements play a crucial role in maintaining safety standards and expanding the possibilities for drone application.   But safety culture also has to come from the top of an organization. Tony Basile is NUAIR’s Chief of Flight Operations and holds a long-standing commitment to safety. “Every project commences with a comprehensive safety review,” Tony shares. “This entails assessing pilot credentials, scrutinizing the UAS operator manual, and analyzing flight profiles and designated airspace. Prior to each flight, a thorough pre-flight briefing engages all personnel.” In the face of complex environments, safety remains paramount. Tony highlights this ethos, affirming, “Safety is the cornerstone. If any aspect—crew, drone, or weather—poses risk, the NUAIR Mission Commander will veto the flight.” He reflects on past challenges, often weather-related, underscoring the need for constant vigilance. In one instance, during a large FAA project amid snow showers, meticulous monitoring and consultation ensured that safety prevailed. Through Tony’s insights, we glimpse the unwavering dedication of NUAIR’s pilot corps, where safety is not just a priority but an uncompromisable commitment. As a commercial pilot, the role of technology in enhancing safety during drone operations is paramount, according to Tony and he highlights the significant contributions of technology in making the industry safer. “Items such as geo-fencing keep drones within desired parameters, agile frequency hopping aids in cyber security, and the use of multiple motors reduces the risk of engine failure,” Tony explains. He emphasizes the importance of these innovations in mitigating risks and ensuring the safe operation of drones in various environments.   Scott Brenton (callsign Gripper), Chief Safety Officer at NUAIR, also stresses the importance of leadership in promoting a culture of safety among drone operators and enthusiasts. He emphasizes that effective safety programs require strong commitment from top leaders, who set the tone and lead by example. Gripper highlights the direct reporting line to the CEO as a key aspect of NUAIR’s safety culture, enabling open communication and swift decision-making. He emphasizes the importance of fostering an environment where everyone feels empowered to voice concerns without fear of retribution, ultimately ensuring a highly professional level of safety throughout the organization. Gripper encapsulates this by stating, “Promoting a safety culture starts at the top. The leader must honestly believe that safety is a common core principle of organizational success, and must communicate that, support it, and keep an eye on it.” He adds, “NUAIR propels visionary action, accelerating change and manifesting visionary results. NUAIR leads with the vision of where ‘NEXT’ takes flight.”   As we reflect on the journey of drone safety, it’s clear that the skies are not just a realm of innovation but also a testament to the unwavering commitment of responsible pilots and the collaborative efforts of industry stakeholders. As we celebrate  Drone Safety Day 2024 , let us reaffirm our dedication to fostering a culture of safety, where innovation and responsibility go hand in hand, ensuring that our skies remain safe for generations to come.

With a commitment to deliver the highest standards of data integrity, ResilienX is focusing on one of the most critical elements of aviation – accuracy. Like many other things in the legacy of aviation, NUAIR’s success comes from a system of systems. A team of industry-leading products and solutions in their own right, the NUAIR Alliance comes together to enable the NUAIR Center of Excellence – headquarters of Advanced Air Mobility in Central New York and influencing the Next generation of aviation around the globe.  ResilienX incorporates data integrity and confidence for the Alliance through system wide situational awareness. In this blog, we’ve invited the team to introduce themselves…   Can you explain what  ResilienX  does as if we knew nothing about it or the aviation market? ResilienX develops software that enables drone ecosystems to answer two crucial questions: How do you know everything is working correctly? What do you do when something goes wrong? By enabling our customers to answer these customers to regulators, our software helps make the safety case for advanced drone operations such as beyond visual line or sight (BVLOS) or one pilot to many drones.   What is the history of  ResilienX  and how did the organization get started in this space? ResilienX started in 2019, with seed funding from the Genius NY program. The idea started with work the founding team had done on the US Army Ground Based Sense and Avoid (GBSAA) program, which was approved by the FAA for routine BVLOS operations and deployed in 2016. Roughly 25% of that system of systems was dedicated to monitoring the health, integrity, and performance of the system and mitigating an faults, failures, or adverse conditions encountered. When we moved to the commercial space in 2017, that 25% was completely unaccounted for by the commercial industry. We took that as an opportunity and brought some the leaders of the GBSAA team together to fill the gap.   What are three ways that  ResilienX  changes the landscape of our industry? NASA coined the term in-time aviation safety management systems (IASMS) about the same time we were founded and has since done research and written whitepapers around the need for IASMS in scaled, autonomous ecosystems. We have latched on to this terminology and body of research, which has identified a multitude of benefits for applying IASMS capabilities. Three specific benefits include: The FAA guidance for Associated Elements requires “an in-service monitoring criteria to detect out-of-compliance performance and initiate corrective action.” The ResilienX FRAIHMWORK software provides a means to meet this requirement across a scaled ecosystem of Associated Elements. Maintaining complex, distributed, federated systems is hard. Our software enables maintenance KPI tracking, SLA verification, debugging analysis, logging, and maintenance workflows for ecosystems that graduate R&D and move to the operations and maintenance (O&M) stage of the systems life cycle. Autonomy requires data quality assurance. Systems making safety critical decisions based on bad, incomplete, latent, or misleading data will reduce trust in the system and potentially have dangerous consequences. ResilienX provides real-time data quality assurance across all data feeds to verify the data being used to make these automated decisions.   What makes  ResilienX  different from other providers in the market? The patent pending ResilienX FRAIHMWORK is currently the market leading IASMS. Through involvement in government sponsored R&D and demonstrations, commercial deployments, and internal testing, FRAIHMWORK is currently TRL8, and is expected to reach TRL9 by the end of 2024.   What is the biggest takeaway you want people reading this to know about  ResilienX ? Whether it is our solution or another solution, the Advanced Air Mobility industry will need to address the requirements our software provides. These requirements are present throughout regulatory guidance from the FAA and EASA, are found in ASTM standards, and have been the identified in safety cases across the industry.   To learn more about the NUAIR Alliance and never miss a beat on the latest news, follow us on Social Media and  Subscribe to our email list !

There is a gap that exists in the aviation industry, and unless we find a way to bridge it, the  forecasted $50B Advanced Air Mobility market  will never be realized. This past week, members of the NUAIR team were in Geneva, Switzerland discussing international air traffic management at  CANSO’s  Airspace World 2024. Despite being several thousand miles away from home, the challenges and difficulties that we discovered here were quite similar to what is felt in the United States. How does current aviation deal with this next generation of aircraft, pilots, and operations? What needs to happen to realize the full potential of this nascent market? Who needs to be engaged to ensure change on a global scale? How do you reconcile uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) and next generation aircraft sharing airspace with commercial and general aviation? At a show that historically focuses on traditional ATM, new players are entering the exhibit hall and session panels are discussing UTM, eVTOLs, and new digital and physical infrastructure needs. Three things dominated the conversation: For any progress in AAM integration to be sustainable, there needs to be international cross-border collaboration. A set of harmonized standards needs to be agreed upon and adhered to – rather than a singular governing body. Information sharing is different to data sharing. Traditional ATM understands how this works, but the digitization of uncrewed data has yet to be fully understood. Now, the question also comes in: how do uncrewed aerial systems (UAS or drones) enter into the AAM field – or do they? In the United States drones are being flown all over, but as we commercialize and scale operations, where do they fit in? NUAIR has over a decade of experience working with UAS as well as understanding and collaborating with regulatory bodies at home and abroad. In recent years, NUAIR has anticipated the closing distance between drones and traditional aviation. Linking the two together, NUAIR curated a stack of technology and innovation partners – the NUAIR Alliance – to look at AAM and ways to address this gap (rather than put all the details here, you can  learn more about the Alliance through our ongoing blog series ). The team witnessed this year’s Airspace World as  Year 0 for AAM airspace integration  and at the conference, the players were ready –  Joby ,  Lilium ,  EVE ,  NATS ,  NUAIR ,  NASA , and more were discussed regularly in panels; international regulators were cluing in –  ICAO ,  EASA , and others were listening and commenting on how to address needs; and the world confirmed it wants to see what is coming next. However, one thing is certain… as the clock continues to tick down on stakeholder returns and public patience, action needs to be taken soon to bridge UTM with traditional aviation into a truly integrated world of Advanced Air Mobility.
