Market Overview:
The global UAV autopilot control unit market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for unmanned aerial vehicles for commercial and military applications. Additionally, the growing trend of miniaturization of drones is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global UAV autopilot control unit market can be segmented into 900 MHz, 2.4 GHz, and others. The 2.4 GHz segment is expected to hold a major share in this market due to its high bandwidth and low latency characteristics. Based on application, the global UAV autopilot control unit market can be divided into fixed wing, multirotor, helicopter, and hybrid multirotor segments.
Product Definition:
A UAV autopilot control unit is a device that allows a user to control the movement and path of a unmanned aerial vehicle. This device is important because it allows users to safely fly their drones without having to manually pilot them.
900 MHz:
900 MHz is a band used for wireless devices such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and cellular phones. It has high usage in UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) Autopilot Control Unit market due to its ability to provide longer battery life and enhanced range. 900Mhz allows the use of smaller components while still maintaining range; this is important while using UAVs in commercial applications where there are stringent regulations regarding the size of components used for safety purposes.
2.4 GHz:
2.4 GHz is a low-bandwidth frequency used in the UAV ACU for collision avoidance and positioning purposes. It helps to provide robust connectivity with other devices such as GPS, GLONASS, and Beidou along with providing high speed data transfer capability within the system. The 2.4 GHz band is widely used by many wireless communication systems including Wi-Fi, cordless phones, Bluetooth technology etc., which are well known to everyone present in this sector globally.
Application Insights:
Based on application, the global UAV autopilot control unit market has been segmented into fixed-wing, rotary-wing and hybrid helicopters. The fixed-wing segment dominated the overall industry in terms of revenue in 2017. This is attributed to increasing use of UAVs for commercial purposes such as photography, monitoring crops and forests from high altitudes for management purposes, and providing security at large sporting events. Furthermore, an increase in number of government contracts for aerial surveillance has also positively influenced market growth over the recent years.
The rotary wing segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising demand from law enforcement agencies and military applications such as target drones for shooting practice by armed forces personnel. Furthermore, increased use of these vehicles by media organizations including National Geographic Society to cover news stories on human migration patterns coupled with growing awareness about usage of this vehicle type among students at universities across China are some factors that may drive demand over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period owing to increasing investments by companies and rising adoption of UAVs for commercial purposes such as real estate, agricultural monitoring, oil & gas exploration, infrastructure inspection and others. Moreover, presence of key players such as DJI; Yuneec International Co., Ltd.; Parrot SA; Hover Camera GmbH & Co., Niu International Holdings Limited; Autelis S.A.; AEE Inc.; Airborne Instruments Pty Ltd.; Ascending Technologies LLC; BetaFlight Inc.; etc. is also contributing toward growth of this regional market space at a significant pace.
Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness substantial growth over the forecast period owing to increasing use cases for which autopilot units are being installed on drones thereby driving demand across countries like China and India among others within Asia Pacific region itself as well as other regions globally including North America.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for unmanned aerial vehicles for commercial and military applications
- Rising awareness about the benefits of using autopilot control units in UAVs
- Technological advancements in autopilot control units that make them more reliable and efficient
- Growing number of startups focusing on developing advanced autopilot control units for UAVs
- Increasing investments in R&D to develop better autopilot control units
