UpWind Solution and their partner SkySpecs are now cleared by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to carry out wind turbine inspections by drones in the USA.
Recently SkySpecs was awarded a 333 exemption – the only type of clearance that authorizes companies to legally fly drones in the USA. As UpWind’s official partner in the wind industry, this FAA Exemption allows SkySpecs to fly an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) with their proprietary collision-avoidance technology called Guardian to visually inspect and photograph wind turbines.
