Matrix 3 is the micro member of the family, a sub-kilogram quad that fits a cargo pocket and launches from the hand, sized for confined spaces, building interiors, and dense urban terrain.
Packs into a cargo pocket and hand-launches in under a minute.
Reads rooms, rooftops, and reverse slopes at close range without exposing the team.
xNav guidance is available as an option, flying and returning home with no satellite fix.
Guards enclose the propellers, so the aircraft can brush walls, doorframes, and ceilings indoors and keep flying.
Same feed, controls, and ground station as every Matrix airframe.
Fielded for close-in reconnaissance and building clearance, a pocketed micro-quad that puts eyes on the far side of a wall without exposing the team.

Matrix 5 is the all-in-one of the family, an ultralight quad one team member carries and runs, and the airframe most units put their new pilots on first.
One airframe covers the jobs that would otherwise need several. One team member carries and runs it, with no dedicated operator required.
The shortest launch-to-picture time in the recon class.
Cheap enough to learn on and forgiving enough to survive it, which is why units put new pilots here first and cross-train the rest of the family from it.
Plugs into the same picture and ground station as the whole family.
Fielded as the individual team member’s own asset and as the airframe units train on, fast to launch, light to carry, and feeding the same picture the whole squad already reads.

Matrix 7 is the most versatile airframe in the family and the most widely deployed, a backpackable quadcopter that carries a real payload to the objective under one operator, GPS-denied, with no reachback required.
Six pounds of usable payload on an airframe one operator carries, with the legs to put it where it needs to go. The sensor mount is fixed rather than gimbaled, which keeps weight and cost in the payload budget instead of the pointing system.
xNAV visual-inertial guidance holds the track with no GPS and no active RF emissions, so the aircraft flies and returns home through jammed and spoofed airspace. Missions run entirely off the ground station, no satellite fix, no reachback.
Thirty-five minutes on the standard pack. The long-range kit doubles that to seventy-two without changing the airframe, the controls, or the operator’s workflow.
The full system rides in one rucksack and flies in under two minutes, no ground infrastructure, no dedicated air crew. A single dismounted operator runs launch, mission, and recovery, and the airframe is rated for hard field conditions.
The most widely fielded airframe in the family, carrying payload to the objective across varied terrain, weather, and contested-spectrum conditions on a single operator’s pipeline.

Matrix 10 is the extended-range member of the family, a larger airframe with advanced payload capacity and longer data-link reach for the platoon and company fight, on the same operator pipeline.
Fifty minutes on station for platoon- and company-level coverage.
A 12.5-mile data-link keeps the aircraft well beyond the threat band.
The largest payload budget in the core family, carried on a fixed mount rather than a gimbal, so the weight goes into what the mission needs at the far end.
Same operator, controls, and ground station as the rest of the Matrix line.
Fielded for the platoon and company fight, with a long data-link that holds the picture from deep standoff, above the threat band.

Matrix Fold is the configurable member of the family, a 10- or 12-inch hybrid that carries bigger-drone capability at a weight one team can move, and takes a new mission cartridge when the mission changes.
A 10- or 12-inch hybrid that folds into a pack-carried case, giving a team bigger-drone capability without bigger-drone weight.
One of very few companies building production airframes by additive manufacturing. It costs less, weighs less, and can be produced anywhere there is a printer.
Carries a stabilized EO/IR gimbal and feeds the same shared picture as the rest of the family.
The same data-link reach as Matrix 10, on an airframe a third of the size.
Matrix Fold carries a cartridge bay. Slide in the cartridge that fits the mission and the same airframe becomes a different aircraft, so a team carries one airframe instead of several. Load-out options include:
Cartridges swap in the field, by the operator, without tools or a depot.
Fielded where a team cannot carry a separate airframe for every task, and reconfigured between sorties by the operator who flies it.

Matrix T is the trainer airframe, it flies the same controls and ground station as the operational Matrix line, so crews qualify on a low-cost platform before touching a mission aircraft.
Same sticks, same ground station, same flight model as the mission aircraft.
Build proficiency on a platform that’s cheap to fly and easy to replace.
Launch, mission, and recovery training end to end.
Crews step from Matrix T to any airframe in the family.
Used to build and sustain crew proficiency on identical controls and ground station, the low-cost path to qualification across the whole Matrix line.

The Matrix Pilot Kit is the ground station at the center of the pipeline, one console commands every airframe in the family, from micro-recon to loitering munition.
Commands every Matrix airframe from a single ground station.
Encrypted command and control resilient to jamming.
Watch and control multiple aircraft and sensor feeds at once.
Case-packed, field- or vehicle-powered, up in minutes.
Fielded as the command center of the Matrix pipeline, a single, secure ground station that flies and manages every airframe the family fields.
Matrix is manufactured in Charlotte, NC at 500+ units/month demonstrated capacity, on a 30-day standard lead time. NDAA compliant.
