What we built
A drone that switches between flight and ground.
Most drones are useful right until the battery runs low or the terrain gets complicated. HUUVER is engineered for the moment they break — it lands, drives across the obstacle or hard-to-reach zone, and continues the mission on the ground. That delivers an endurance profile no pure-flight drone can match: 20 minutes of flight, 10 hours of ground mobility.
The platform integrates VTOL, perching, driving, and climbing modes. It was also the first UAV in the world to integrate full Galileo authentication — the EU's satellite positioning system with cryptographically signed signals, immune to GPS spoofing. Strategic value for sovereign operations, border patrol, and any context where signal integrity is a precondition for trust.

Consortium
We led an international consortium.
HUUVER was Dronehub's first EU-consortium leadership role — 7 partners across 5 countries, coordinated from Poland. Vadym Melnyk personally listed as project coordinator, which is rare for a company still at SME stage. The same pattern repeats across our R&D portfolio: when the EU wants a complex multi-country consortium led, they call us.
