UAV reliability intelligence

Catch reliability problems before they ground your aircraft.

RRD turns supported ArduPilot flight logs into evidence-backed reliability findings, screening battery, GPS, EKF, vibration, IMU and other recorded signals so operators can investigate issues faster.

01 / SPEEDFind evidence faster

Skip hours of manually hunting through thousands of telemetry records.

02 / AWARENESSCatch emerging issues

Surface threshold crossings in recorded power, navigation, estimator, vibration and IMU data.

03 / HISTORYBuild aircraft context

Keep analysis and reports tied to an aircraft so changes can be reviewed over time.

What RRD does

Flight logs in. Actionable evidence out.

Upload a supported log. RRD validates the source, extracts supported telemetry and identifies deterministic screening findings with the values behind them.

01 / VALIDATE

Confirm the source

Verify autopilot, log format and file structure before analysis begins.

02 / EXTRACT

Preserve the evidence

Normalize supported signals while retaining original message and field provenance.

03 / SCREEN

Check thresholds

Compare recorded signals against transparent deterministic reliability rules.

04 / REVIEW

Make it inspectable

See findings, supporting values, charts, missing signals and limitations together.

Sample analysis

Show the evidence, not just an alert.

Every finding should answer the same practical questions: what happened, what data supports it, and what deserves inspection next.

Exact supporting values retained

Source-message provenance preserved

Missing-signal and data-quality warnings shown

SCREENING

High vibration observed

Peak recorded vibration crossed the configured screening threshold.

REVIEW

Battery voltage range parsed

Minimum and maximum voltage values were extracted with source provenance.

AVAILABLE

Navigation evidence available

GPS satellite count, fix status and HDOP were present for review.

AVAILABLE

RRD screening findings support maintenance investigation; they are not a certified airworthiness determination.

Evidence architecture

Built around evidence, not opaque scoring.

RRD keeps technical context visible: what signal was recorded, where it came from, what rule was applied and what limitation affects interpretation.

How it works

From log file to reliability evidence in four steps.

The workflow is designed to make technical analysis repeatable without hiding what the original flight controller recorded.

01 / UPLOAD

Add the log

Upload a production-supported ArduPilot DataFlash .BIN file.

02 / ANALYZE

Parse the source

RRD validates the file and extracts supported telemetry, events and context.

03 / SCREEN

Apply rules

Recorded signals are compared with transparent deterministic thresholds.

04 / ACT

Review evidence

Inspect findings and supporting data, then decide what merits attention.

Compatibility

Clear about what works today.

RRD only labels a format production-supported after upload, parsing, findings, charts, reports and failure handling pass end-to-end validation.

Capability	ArduPilot DataFlash `.BIN`	PX4 ULog `.ULG`
Product status	Production-supported	In validation
Power, GPS, navigation, vibration, IMU and estimator evidence	Analyzed when recorded	Topic and field mappings in validation
Modes, events, parameters and configuration context	Reported when recorded	Planned for validation corpus
Source provenance and data-quality limitations	Included	Required before release
Interactive charts and evidence-backed PDF	Included	Required before release

PX4 is next. ULog is self-describing and records PX4 uORB topics, making it suitable for the same traceable workflow without implying that ArduPilot and PX4 expose identical signals.

Pricing

Start small. Pay less per aircraft as you scale.

Solo is built for operators with 1–3 aircraft. Fleet is available at any fleet size, with a higher platform fee and a lower per-aircraft rate that rewards growth.

Free Reliability Baseline

Send three supported ArduPilot .BIN logs from one aircraft. No credit card required.

Start Fleet

Choose your aircraft count during checkout. Fleet's $15 per-aircraft rate is half Solo's $30 incremental rate, so effective cost per aircraft falls as the fleet grows. Renews monthly until canceled. Annual billing is also available.

Pricing that rewards growth: Solo keeps the entry price low for 1–3 aircraft. Moving from 3-aircraft Solo ($109/month) to 4-aircraft Fleet ($159/month) adds the Fleet platform and cuts the incremental aircraft rate from $30 to $15. The larger the fleet, the lower Fleet's effective cost per aircraft.

Why RRD

Reliability analysis built around traceable flight data.

Red River Dynamics helps UAV operators inspect supported flight-controller logs without manually searching thousands of telemetry records. The product preserves source evidence, uses transparent screening rules and makes limitations explicit.

ArduPilot DataFlash is production-supported today. PX4 ULog is the next format being validated.

Scope: RRD surfaces reliability evidence for maintenance investigation. It does not provide a calibrated fleet health score, diagnosis, or certified airworthiness determination.
