Teaming up with Seiler Instrument and Frontier Precision—both of which are experienced service providers and drone resellers—Delair offers complete customer support for its advanced mapping and surveying drone, Delair UX11.
Delair worked with both the firms’ technicians to certify them on the newest repair and maintenance processes, needed to improve its UX11 drone’s operations. Seiler Instrument’s training happened at Delair’s main manufacturing center and headquarters located in Toulouse, France. In addition, Delair worked with the service providers to make sure that each one has an adequate inventory of spares and parts, and also the necessary tooling to carry out repair and maintenance work on the particular Delair UAV variants.
It’s important that our customers in the US have access to experts service and support so we can minimize down time when their drones require maintenance or repairs. Having a team of trained and qualified technicians like those from Seiler and Frontier Precision on the ground in the US, will ensure a more efficient service process and reduce the amount of time that our customers’ drones are out of operation due to either routine maintenance or damage from operations.

For a number of years, Seiler Instrument has been a reseller of Delair drones and is one of the leading providers of brand name surveying and supply equipment in the Midwest region. A nationally recognized service and repair center in Saint Louis, Missouri, which is being operated by Seiler Instrument, will be used to support the advanced mapping and surveying drone, Delair UX11.
Going through the very detailed training at Delair’s facility in France was a valuable experience and we saw a lot of similarities both in how we operate as well as our shared value in terms of customer service. The professionalism in the training I received was top notch. Not only did I learn to repair the units, I also learned how to operate and fly them as well, so when a customer calls in, it will really help me diagnose the issues quickly due to my training on the UX11.
