Engineered for fixed-wing, tactical UCAV, and quad-VTOL platforms. Featuring non-linear L1 guidance, TECS total energy propulsion control, binary MAVLink v2 telemetry, and hardware GNSS synchronization.
Every subsystem in TakeOff GC is engineered around deterministic flight physics, low-latency hardware serial links, and multi-aircraft airspace awareness.
Eliminates waypoint oscillation using lookahead L1 vector guidance, dynamic turn-anticipation lead distance, and Total Energy Control System pitch/throttle coordination.
Direct USB/UART SiK Telemetry Radio and UDP bridge support with hardware 0xFD framing, X.25 CRC-16/MCRF4XX validation, and real-time packet inspector.
Automatically synchronizes the Ground Control Station HOME point and mission waypoints with your physical GNSS receiver or macOS CoreLocation sensor.
Stabilized 3-axis optical and thermal payload simulation with White-Hot, Black-Hot, and Ironbow palettes, laser rangefinder slant-range, and moving target tracking.
High-frequency flight data logging with post-flight export to standard CSV and MAVLink TLOG.JSON formats for aerodynamic and guidance analysis.
Synchronize operator credentials, flight logs, and workspace preferences via Supabase Auth, or launch immediately in frictionless anonymous Guest Mode.
Self-contained native installers unpack all 3D airframe assets, physics modules, and offline avionics directly to disk—no external runtime or archive extraction required.
