Embention Veronte Autopilot 4x Triple/Quad-Redundant Fail-Operational Flight Control System
Triple-redundant internal (plus 4th external) fail-operational DO-178C / DO-254 autopilot (128x83x70 mm, 615 g, IP67) with patent-pending Dissimilar Voter for eVTOL & MALE UAS. Supplied across the United Kingdom by Torquety Ltd with application engineering review, 3D STEP CAD support, and commercial quotations in Pounds Sterling (GBP).
Technical Overview: Veronte Autopilot 4x
The Embention Veronte Autopilot 4x (Hardware v1.8, Official Part Numbers P006146 Remote ID, P006147 ADS-B, P006984 without DAA) is a fail-operational, triple-redundant flight control system engineered for safety-critical eVTOL, Urban Air Mobility (UAM), helicopter, and MALE tactical UAS requiring zero single points of failure. It integrates three complete Veronte Autopilot 1x cores plus dual redundant arbiters and a patent-pending radiation-tolerant Dissimilar Voter inside a single 128 x 83 x 70 mm IP67 anodized aluminium enclosure (615–631 g).
Supporting an optional 4th external dissimilar autopilot core for quad-redundant architectures, the Veronte Autopilot 4x provides dual independent power inputs (6.5 VDC to 36 VDC), 9x accelerometers, 9x gyroscopes, 6x survey-grade RTK GNSS receivers, and 6x static/pitot sensors. Supplied and supported across the United Kingdom by Commercial-grade open-source flight controllers and non-certified power electronics lack deterministic real-time partitioning, hardware redundancy, and traceability artefacts required by UK CAA CAP 722, SORA SAIL III–VI, and NATO STANAG airworthiness authorities.
Packaged for strict SWaP-C airframe budgets (128 mm x 83 mm x 70 mm, 615 g (P006984) / 630 g (P006146) / 631 g (P006147), DO-160G aerospace grade), the Veronte Autopilot 4x (P006146 / P006147 / P006984) integrates seamlessly across the Veronte avionics bus ecosystem. As Embention's official UK commercial and application engineering partner, TORQUETY LTD (UK Company No. 17124704, London WC2H 9JQ & Oxford +44 1865 679185) supplies hardware units, SOI certification data packages, HIL/SIL benches, and UK technical integration support priced in Pounds Sterling (GBP).
