Capability profile
MicroPilot designs professional uncrewed-aircraft autopilots, flight-control software, simulation and hardware-in-the-loop test equipment from its Manitoba facility.
These describe the reviewed application scope, not confirmed deployments, released requirements or procurement eligibility.
NRC contribution 1040029 provides C$900,000 over February 2026–March 2028 for integration and enhancement of MicroPilot autopilots in Canadian RPAS. The funded defence-readiness and qualification initiative is not blanket airworthiness approval.
Autopilot hardware, HORIZON ground software, XTENDER integration tools and simulation/test products are commercially presented for fixed-wing, rotary-wing and VTOL integration.
A technology readiness level is not established by the reviewed public sources.
No reviewed Mission area or released Defence need connection is currently published.
These records support this capability and its published Mission area and Defence need connections. A source count is not a count of independent confirmations.

The product family supports fixed-wing, rotary, transitioning and VTOL aircraft with integrated sensors, telemetry and HORIZON ground control. XTENDER software interfaces and six-degree-of-freedom bench simulation complement autopilot integration; customer-count claims are vendor-reported rather than acceptance evidence.
