Flight Control Systems

Engineering autonomous flight.

Tustin Dynamics develops flight-control hardware, autopilot integration and advanced control solutions for unmanned aircraft.

About Tustin Dynamics

Tustin Dynamics is built by a master's-and-doctoral team with global perspective, elite academic training and deep engineering expertise. Our core members come from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Beihang University, Northwestern Polytechnical University and EPFL. Every team member was educated at a Project 211 university or an equivalent top-tier international institution, and our core members bring nearly a decade of experience in aerospace engineering and flight-control system development.

Shared purpose makes no distance too great.

We work across the complete autonomous-flight technology stack, from flight-control electronics and embedded autopilots to control algorithms and system integration. We turn advanced research into testable, deployable and production-ready solutions for multicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, VTOL platforms and compact helicopters.

Beyond building products, we help advance the global open-source flight ecosystem and its technical standards. We contribute to PX4, NuttX, QGroundControl and MAVLink, and our team drove the complete integration of China's new national UAV Remote ID standard into MAVLink.

Core Technology

From board-level hardware to flight validation, we build the complete technology chain required to turn advanced flight-control research into dependable, production-ready aircraft systems.

High-Reliability Flight Hardware

System-level flight-controller design combining high-performance computing, redundant sensing, reliable onboard storage, robust power architecture and protected interfaces for high-speed, high-vibration and space-constrained aircraft.

Autopilot Platforms & Embedded Systems

Deep expertise across PX4, ArduPilot, NuttX and MAVLink, spanning board support, device drivers, communication protocols, parameter systems, ground-station integration and flight validation.

Advanced Control & Flight Algorithms

Control solutions for strong disturbances, model uncertainty and actuator faults, including robust control, MPC, INDI, SO(3) geometric control, ADRC, system identification and fault-tolerant control, carried through to real-time deployment.

Aircraft Integration & Flight Validation

End-to-end system engineering for multicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, VTOL platforms and compact helicopters, covering modeling, simulation, hardware-software integration, flight testing and iterative performance validation.

Products

Flight-control systems, ground software and complete aircraft platforms engineered for compact, high-speed and autonomous missions.
