Solutions Simulation and Training
Next-Generation Simulation for Unmanned Operations
Cost-effective platform for operational mission training, virtual validation, and dynamic control loop design across air, land, and maritime domains.
Fly an exact digital copy of the drone, in VR or on screen, even before it is built.
Simulate the exact drone, not a generic one.
FF Twin simulates the drone you are building or flying, with its real aerodynamics, mass distribution and propulsion. The same digital twin is used to develop control systems, test hardware and train pilots.
That moves most of the testing and training away from the airfield. Control loops are tuned virtually, flight hardware is verified in the loop, and edge cases are explored without risk to equipment or people. Pilots learn the specific aircraft before it is built and keep training after it is delivered. The result is fewer prototypes, lower training costs and a shorter path to an operational drone.
Design & Optimisation
- Risk-free design: Test and modify various drone designs digitally before building the first physical prototype.
- Better control systems: Develop and fine-tune guidance and control systems efficiently using virtual auto-tuning.
- Validate flight characteristics: Get an authentic feel for the drone's behaviour and performance early in development.
Testing & Safety
- Extreme testing, zero risk: Push the drone to its absolute limits without risking equipment damage or personal injury.
- Virtual mission simulation: Evaluate and practise specific missions within a virtual replica of the real world.
- Advanced HIL testing: Utilise Hardware-In-The-Loop capabilities to verify actual hardware in a simulated environment.
- Comprehensive testing methods: Seamlessly transition from pure software simulation (SIL) to hardware integration (HIL), enabling confident validation across every developmental phase.
- Real-time precision: Test and refine complex control systems with real-time simulation.
Precision Training & Efficiency
- Digital twin proficiency: Train pilots on an exact digital replica to master its specific weight, responsiveness, and unique flight dynamics.
- Energy-optimised piloting: Practise precise takeoff and manoeuvring techniques calibrated to minimise power consumption and maximise battery life.
- Scalable fleet training: Train multiple pilots simultaneously on the exact custom model to standardise high-performance operating skills.
- Mission-specific specialisation: Build deep muscle memory for the specific aircraft to reduce the real-world learning curve to zero.
Cost & Commercial Value
- Cost-effective training: Reduce training costs significantly by utilising the simulation both before and after production.
- Reduced time-to-market: Save time and development costs by catching critical flaws prior to manufacturing.
- Lab-to-production scalability: Accelerate innovation from the initial lab concept to final production using fully scalable digital tools.
- Flexible system deployment: Run it as SaaS or air-gapped on-premise, on a modular platform that adapts to changing engineering demands and industry standards.
