Castelion saved its biggest flight test to cap off the year.

We’d like to extend a massive thank you to the entire staff at Point Mugu Sea Range and Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) for the countless hours of support as we closed-in on a milestone flight test on San Nicolas Island. Their commitment to rapid test opportunities and innovation is critical to our success.

Step by step, flight by flight. Progress continues.

At Castelion, we lovingly refer to our rapid prototype and test group as “Desert Rats”.

Every other week, our Desert Rats appear under the desert sun to fly iteratively upgraded components and subsystems, continuing a legacy of prototyping and test in America’s deserts.

The Colour And The Shape was robbed from Apple Music’s top 100 best albums, seriously Tim Cook? Might be switching to Spotify because this is blasphemy.
