Rapid Composites / Darkmoth Robotics UAS/Ai (RC/DMR)
A Proven, Vertically Integrated UAS Manufacturing Platform — Ready for Strategic Acquisition or Investment.
RC/DMR is a fully operational, turnkey unmanned aerial systems (UAS) manufacturer—vertically integrated, production-ready, and built for scale.
With over 26 years of engineering mastery, RC/DMR has refined every stage of UAS production, from concept and CAD modeling to high-vol. composite molding. Our proprietary systems deliver the fastest carbon fiber prod/cycle now in the United States, producing aerospace-grade parts in under 8 minutes, many in under 2 minutes, and a few in as little as 45 seconds—a disruptive capability in defense manufacturing.
We specialize in mission-critical, small to medium delta-wing, high-aspect-ratio wing, VTOL, and transitional aircraft, alongside a wide range of custom aerospace and autonomous designs. Every element—engineering, tooling, automation, and molding—exists under one roof, ensuring unmatched control, precision, and intellectual property security. IP arrangement is negotiable. Additionally, RC develops a wide array of unrelated products to include: rugged handheld computers, e-foil surf tech, mechanisms, targeting sys., automotive processes, hybrid materials sci. and so much more.
