Northwest UAV’s Flight, Analysis, and System Test (FAST) Range provides a secure, managed environment for professional drone evaluation within active FAA-certified airspace. Situated in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, our facility delivers authentic operational conditions to ensure your hardware meets strict real-world demands before deployment.
Eliminate logistical friction between engineering and validation. Our facility consolidates expert design, precision manufacturing, and rigorous ground testing into a single location. By streamlining the pathway from concept to flight, we reduce development timelines for aerospace contractors and commercial operators.
Operating as a certified UAS Test Range under the Pan-Pacific UAS Complex since 2019, our infrastructure rests on an FAA Certificate of Authorization held through the University of Alaska Fairbanks. We provide the legal framework, controlled airspace, and technical rigor your program requires.
A Division of Northwest UAV
Northwest UAV delivers a streamlined path for professional drone deployment. We integrate design, manufacturing, and rigorous system testing within a single, efficient pipeline. By housing every phase of development under one roof, we eliminate the logistical friction that delays mission-critical hardware. Your goals require execution, and our specialized team provides the expertise to move your project from a conceptual drawing to a fully operational aircraft.
We operate the FAST Range just twelve miles from our main headquarters. This FAA-certified airspace offers the immediate, private access necessary for authentic flight analysis. Reliability is not a luxury in this industry; it is the baseline. We provide the controlled environment and vetted supply chain required to ensure your platform performs exactly as expected.
