Our Vision

Our Vision & Mission

Our vision is to be acknowledged as Africa’s leading, innovative Drone Training and Service Provider. Our mission is to provide excellence in Drone Training and safe operations throughout Africa.

Operation Experience

ProWings developed Drones as a Teaching Tool for the South African Department of Defence, Military Academy, Western Cape.

Designed and built the “CUB”, a petrol-driven Drone with 5 hours endurance for anti-rhino poaching operations. Full security and data monitoring and control systems were developed, which included offsite Drone camera control via satellite communication.

Anti-rhino poaching operation at Hluhluwe iMfolozi Game Reserve, Kwazulu-Natal. The “CUBS” flew in excess of 4000 hours during day and night operations. This resulted in a 92% drop in poaching incidents and a decrease of 68% in rhino carcass counts.

Drones are being deployed throughout Africa in Mining, Agriculture, Security, Health Services, Environmental Assessment and WildLife Conservation. Applications for Drone Technology and Data processing continue to grow on a daily basis.
