Engineering confidence. Aviation standards. Experience that stands up to scrutiny.
Jackson UAS provides specialist unmanned aircraft engineering, maintenance, and operational support with a clear focus on safety, transparency, and regulatory compliance.
We specialise in the maintenance, repair, and modification of large UAVs from off the shelf XAG and DJI, to custom-built, commercial, and experimental platforms. From fault diagnosis and structural repair through to flight-critical system integration, we ensure aircraft are safe, compliant, and ready for operational use.
Our engineering approach is grounded in manned aviation maintenance principles and aligned with New Zealand CAA expectations. Quality, traceability, and clear documentation are built into every job — whether routine servicing or complex one-off work.
Jackson UAS works in partnership with SPS Automation to deliver nationwide UAV maintenance capability, including support for operators working outside standard manufacturer maintenance models. Together, we are CAA-approved to carry out maintenance on all UAV types operating in New Zealand, including non-standard, bespoke, experimental, and prototype aircraft.
We regularly support:
- Custom and “one-off” UAV designs
- Aircraft without OEM maintenance pathways
- Independent conformity and airworthiness evidence
- SORA and operational authorisation applications
Jackson UAS is a CAA Approved Organisation (CAR 101.202) for RPAS over 15 kg and has supported numerous successful Part 102 applications, providing practical guidance from early concept through to approval.
