            Fly BVLOS Technology was established as an investor company in February 2019 in the Gebze
            Technical University Technopark area of 24,000 m , called Dronepark.

            Our goals was to open R&D offic-
            es and workshops under the name
            of Turkish  Drone Consortium in
            the region  where we are locat-
            ed to bring  together companies,
            working on drone technologies in
            offices and workshops to produce
            a unique unmanned aerial vehi-
            cle within  the scope of develop-
            ment and production activities for
            drone technologies,  to  produce
            and to sell or export as a concept
            by  providing  UAV pilot training,
            creating synergy.

            In parallel with above invest-
            ments, the first conceptual design studies for the production of the JACKAL UAV, which is planned as
            the Fly X Project with a range of 130 km with a 15 kg load carrying capacity with a battery, started in
            January 2022, and the PoC aircraft, which was produced about four months later, made its first flight
            in April 2022.

            In this process, as a part of pilot training in the UAV-2 class, the first group consisting of domestic and
            international students was given UK CAA certified UAV pilot training by retired flight instructors from
            the British and Turkish Air Forces.

            In April 2022, within our target, the sales contract of the JACKAL UAV was signed to the UK and the first
            products were delivered on site in October 2022.

            As a young and dynamic company, Fly BVLOS Technology works to produce the best and safest un-
            manned aerial vehicles in a unique structure and offer them to serve humanity with the understanding
            of „Drones for Good“ in its production, training and development activities according to the goals of
            creation and confidently steps into the future.
