PDW CORE

PDW CORE is an advanced ground control software ecosystem purpose-built to elevate the performance of the C100 multi-mission quadcopter in modern defense environments. Engineered for tactical adaptability, it integrates a redesigned, touch-optimized user interface across Android platforms and handheld controllers, enabling seamless control in austere or mobile conditions.

The suite’s intuitive operation streamlines complex mission workflows, while embedded tools such as PDW SIM—an immersive flight simulator—allow for risk-free training and pre-mission planning using real-world data and authentic system physics.

With an embedded ATAK plug-in that bridges MavLink to Cursor on Target (CoT), PDW CORE ensures full interoperability with TAK networks, enabling live coordination and enhanced situational awareness across units.

The mission planner supports dynamic overlays and real-time data inputs for precision targeting, reconnaissance, and in-theater tactical shifts. Operators can also manage entire drone fleets with PDW Updater, a Windows-compatible tool for remote firmware updates and log retrieval.
