Discuss your project →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.
We do more than build products: we help shape the global open-source flight ecosystem. As contributors to ArduPilot, PX4, NuttX, QGroundControl and MAVLink, our work spans flight software, embedded systems and technical standards. Our team drove the complete integration of China's new national UAV Remote ID standard into MAVLink, while Tustin Mach has entered both the ArduPilot and PX4 communities; Betaflight is supported, with INAV support planned, demonstrating our ability to carry technology from standards and software through to flight-ready hardware.
