A V-TOL Flight Services Team operating a company Hornet variant ROTA-FIX™ drone has just successfully completed its first job with TransGrid within the Holsworthy Military Area, NSW.

“Working closely with TransGrid, Balmoral Engineering & SICAME Australia, has demonstrated how our integrated supply chain approach safely & effectively sets the global benchmark in the supply & installation of the best in-class ROTAMARKA™ bird & aircraft hazard deflector on elevated electrical transmission infrastructure,” says Mark Xavier CEO of V-TOL.

The V-TOL ROTA-FIX™ is a unique fit-for-purpose robotic solution developed specifically for attaching the Balmoral Engineering ROTAMARKA™, that is globally distributed by SICAME, to energised & de-energised elevated electrical infrastructure. Both the Hornet aircraft & its payload (patent pending) are made in Australia by V-TOL Aerospace with industry testing by Energy QLD Ltd during its development. V-TOL ROTA-FIX™ offers a tested sovereign capability to the Australian Energy Infrastructure Industry which is particularly important when operating within Defence & other sensitive locations.

The group looks forward to delivering this outcome wherever in the world electrical infrastructure requires hazardous marking for the protection of aircraft, birds and people.
