About the company
25 years in the sky — from model aircraft to serial unmanned systems
QAZDRON is a Kazakhstani manufacturer of in-house designed unmanned aerial systems, with its office and production base in Astana. We deliver an end-to-end solution for a wide range of civil and industrial tasks — from the initial design concept through to production and field operation of the finished system.

Our mission is to give our clients the most cost-effective access to information, using high-technology airborne systems.
Products
Flight platforms
Each platform is built for a specific job: wide-area survey, close inspection, subsurface prospecting or long patrol.
Fixed-wing UAV
TENGRI PRO 3.5
Long-endurance fixed-wing platform
A 3,500 mm wingspan: 3.5 hours of flight, a 4,000 m ceiling and large areas covered in a single sortie.

Full cycle
From concept to field operation, under one roof
We do not assemble aircraft from off-the-shelf kits — we design them, build their moulds, write their avionics and prove them in the field.
Composite manufacturing
Moulds, internal load-bearing structures and carbon/glass-fibre skins — this is where a light yet rigid airframe is born.
CNC and 3D printing
Professional 3D printers, laser cutters and CNC mills produce parts in metal, plastic and aviation plywood to exact tolerances.
Avionics and autopilot
Flight-control loop, 868 MHz telemetry link, autonomous waypoint navigation and the ground control station.
Payload integration
Photo and HD video cameras, NDVI sensors, thermal imagers, IR cameras, gas analysers and ground-penetrating radar — all adapted to a single airframe.
Training and support
Operator training, field trials, warranty service and data-processing methodology complete every delivery.
Solutions
Where we fly
Aerial survey is not the goal but the tool. The client receives data good enough to act on.
-
Agriculture
The real state of a field — measured data, not guesswork.

Energy and power lines
Hundreds of kilometres of line inspected without sending a crew.
Learn more -
Oil and gas
Pipeline routes, gas leaks and right-of-way discipline.
Learn more -
Geodesy and mapping
Orthomosaic, terrain model and 3D model — from a single flight.
Learn more -
Geology and subsurface survey
Radar that never touches the ground: swamp and snow are no longer an obstacle.
