Flight Control Systems

Engineering autonomous flight.

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

About Tustin Dynamics

Our team brings together master's and doctoral graduates from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Beihang University, Northwestern Polytechnical University and EPFL. Every team member has an academic background from a Project 211 university or an equivalent top-tier international institution, and our core members have nearly a decade of experience in aerospace engineering and flight-control system development.

We focus on reliable flight-control electronics, embedded autopilot systems and control-algorithm deployment for multicopters, fixed-wing aircraft and VTOL platforms, as well as compact electric- and fuel-powered helicopters.

We contribute to PX4, NuttX, QGroundControl and MAVLink. The integration of China's new national UAV Remote ID standard into MAVLink was driven entirely by our team.

Core Technology

Flight-Control Hardware

High-performance autopilot hardware designed for demanding unmanned aircraft applications.

PX4 & ArduPilot Integration

Board-support development, driver integration, flight validation and planned upstream support for both major autopilot communities.

Advanced Control

Robust control, model predictive control (MPC), incremental nonlinear dynamic inversion (INDI), SO(3)-based geometric control, active disturbance rejection control (ADRC), system identification, fault-tolerant control and real-world deployment.

Products

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

Flight Controller Late August 2026

Tustin Mini

A compact PX4-compatible flight controller for space- and weight-constrained aircraft.

  • Designed for high-vibration helicopter noise environments.
  • Supports high-rate spin conditions following multicopter rotor failure.
  • The first publicly disclosed open-source flight controller to use SD NAND instead of a removable SD card for vibration-resilient onboard logging.
