Long referred to as the “Holy Grail” for the commercial drone industry, it’s hard to overstate the importance of beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations. Enabling operators and organizations to scale how they do everything from perform inspections to survey entire terrains, BVLOS operations are set to fully unlock the potential of the technology that has been talked about for many years. In securing the recent FAA BVLOS waiver for expanded drone operations, American Robotics is looking to enable these exact operations in the present and for the future. 


In the release, Timothy "T3" Tenne, CEO of American Robotics, mentioned this approval by the FAA is a validation of the company’s commitment to advancing the drone industry at scale, as it allows American Robotics' to conduct true BVLOS operations with its autonomous Optimus sUAS. It’s an important distinction because as we recently detailed, not all waivers are created equal. Many waivers have requirements surrounding the use of visual observers and restricting operations over people and moving vehicles when flying beyond visual line of sight, and that difference is something he underscored.

This BVLOS waiver is a game changer! I recently piloted drones in remote areas, and having a structured framework makes operations so much smoother. Excited to see how "Granny 2" can enhance the precision of these missions!

I like how each stage makes me adjust my driving instead of repeating exactly the same approach. Drive Mad can look simple at first, but some of the jumps require surprisingly careful control.

Because talent, not luck, decides victory, every successful dodge is gratifying. Slope Game pushes players to continuously enhance their timing and responses while striving for personal bests.
