VOLOLAND presents ‘K-Drone’ full-cycle integrated technology at DSK 2026… Accelerating global drone market penetration following the establishment of a US corporation!
Vololand Co., Ltd. (CEO Sungho Ahn), a company specializing in intelligent drone solutions, announced its participation in DSK 2026, to be held at BEXCO in Busan from Wednesday, February 25, to Friday, February 27.
Vololand operates as an integrated unmanned aerial systems company that independently develops and mass-produces full-cycle technology, ranging from core drone components to complete systems and drone stations.
The company independently designs and develops a full lineup of core drone electronic components, including the high-performance flight controller NarinFC series (H7, H5, H3, X3), RTK GPS modules (NarinGPS), ESCs (NarinESC), AI edge computers (SLAMer), and motors. It also functions as a flight control technology company supporting ArduPilot and PX4 dual firmware.
In particular, the company possesses strong technical capabilities in heavy-lift and tethered drones. It has accumulated operational technology for special-purpose drones across the military, public, and industrial sectors. It also secures defense application technologies such as triple-redundancy design, high-reliability architecture, and flight controller self-destruct (data protection) technology.
Furthermore, Vololand implements an End-to-End automatic operation platform that links the aircraft, station, control, and cloud by developing a next-generation drone station that includes automatic takeoff and landing, battery charging, and remote control functions.
Vololand has achieved practical results in domestic and international markets through the localization of core drone parts and the integration of an operational platform. The company demonstrated its technical prowess by participating in the K-Drone Delivery Demonstration Project and the Drone Demonstration City Project, hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport, applying automatic flight, remote control, and drone-station-linked operation technologies to the field. It has conducted drone-based industrial demonstrations and public service operations in cooperation with local governments, including Ulsan Metropolitan City, Ulju-gun, Gumi-si, and Jeju-do. It supplies high-reliability flight control systems in the military and public sectors.
Notably, in 2024, the company provided technical support for a ROK-US joint exercise involving the 28th Infantry Division of the Republic of Korea Army and the 65th Medical Brigade of the 8th US Army. In the same year, the company received a letter of appreciation from the commander of the 28th Infantry Division, officially recognizing its technical excellence and operational stability.
In overseas markets, Vololand expands its global business, with a focus on the United States. The company established a local corporation, VOLOLAND GA Inc., in Georgia, USA, to lay the groundwork for entering the North American market and to promote entry into the industrial and defense drone markets through discussions with US drone companies.
Simultaneously, the company expands exports of industrial heavy-lift drones and core components to Asia and the Middle East. It extends its global supply chain, focusing on high-performance flight controllers (NarinFC series), RTK GNSS modules (NarinGPS), ESC systems (NarinESC), and automated drone stations. The company emphasizes that it secures both technical independence and reliability in the global market by offering alternative supply solutions that reduce dependence on Chinese parts, supported by its proprietary technology for ArduPilot and PX4 dual firmware.
Vololand intends to promote its core component localization technology and integrated operation platform capabilities externally through its participation in DSK 2026 and expand cooperation opportunities with demand sources in the public, military, and industrial sectors. Additionally, the company aims to strengthen its foundation for global market entry beyond the domestic market by establishing networks with overseas buyers and global partners, and by exploring investment and strategic alliance opportunities.
At this exhibition, Vololand plans to showcase integrated operation solutions based on the high-performance flight controller NarinFC series (H7, H5, H3, X3), NarinGPS RTK modules, NarinESC, drone motors, and automated drone stations.
The NarinFC series features flight controllers based on proprietary designs that support dual firmware for ArduPilot and PX4, offering a high-reliability architecture and stability suitable for industrial and military operations. It also provides optimized performance for heavy-lift and special-purpose drone operations by integrating RTK-based precision navigation technology with power and drive systems.
The drone station solution, which was exhibited, features the integration of the aircraft, station, and control system into a single platform, including automatic takeoff and landing, battery charging, and remote control linking. This enables the automation of repetitive missions, improves operational efficiency, reduces reliance on the workforce, and simultaneously secures the stability and scalability required for public, defense, and industrial sites.
Vololand stated, “The products exhibited at this DSK possess competitiveness as domestic solutions that can replace parts dependent on overseas sources, based on our integrated capability to independently develop and mass-produce full-cycle technology from core components to operation platforms.”
The company added, “Vololand plans to expand its existing export base centered on the United States and India and begin entering the Middle East and Southeast Asian markets in earnest. We intend to expand our business area not only to component supply but also to integrated operation platforms through local corporations and partnerships, and build a package-type export model for heavy-lift drones, drone stations, and core electronic components. Furthermore, we plan to strengthen the global supply chain centering on the defense and industrial markets and expand a strategic cooperation structure based on technical localization.”
DSK 2026, hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Ministry of National Defense, the Korea Aerospace Administration, and Busan Metropolitan City, is prepared as a venue to showcase advanced technologies from drones to aerospace, defense, safety, and geospatial information in one place. Additionally, the DSK Conference, featuring stakeholders from government, military, industry, academia, and research institutions, will cover the latest trends in drones and related technologies, including 5G-based communication, AI-enabled autonomous flight, and applications in military, logistics, and smart cities.
