The Drone Parachute Report 2021 addresses an incresingly-important market in the drone industry. Drone parachutes are designed to reduce the impact energy in case of a malfunction or accident. This means that they are not only something nice to have but rather an accessory that is becoming increasingly more necessary thanks to regulation for advanced missions.
Drone parachutes can be designed as either a recovery system (to prevent the drone from crashing) or as standard landing device (e.g. fixed-wing drones), where most parachute manufacturers design both. Deployment can be manual or automatic, and it can be carried out through gravity or ballistic/kinetic mechanisms. Our report compares these solutions in greater detail, including pricing information. The drone parachute market is broken down by size and unit sales as well as by region and drone weight class.
The 66-page report contains company profiles from 11 leading drone parachute manufacturers as well as their product portfolio. There is also a chapter which takes a closer look at the regulatory landscape worldwide: what is happening and where legislation is headed as well as quality standards for drone parachutes.
