The launch of FLYGHT represents a deliberate evolution from traditional hardware sales toward an end-to-end drone services model, mirroring a global industry trend away from selling hardware and toward selling outcomes.

Drone-as-a-Service has gained rapid momentum worldwide in recent years. By adopting subscription-based service models, enterprises and government bodies can deploy drone capabilities more flexibly and cost-effectively. The successful rollout of FLYGHT further validates the commercial viability and market potential of the DaaS model across a wide range of industry verticals.
