Partnership combines UTM services delivery expertise alongside enterprise Physical AI capabilities for operators building scalable, OEM-agnostic drone programmes
San Jose, CA, May 19, 2026 — FlytBase, the enterprise Physical AI platform for drone autonomy, today announced a partnership with Yarra Drones, an Australian drone technology company specialising in UTM delivery infrastructure and drone compliance systems.
As Australia prepares for broader BVLOS operations and national UTM adoption, enterprises and drone operators are increasingly looking for solutions that combine regulatory readiness with scalable autonomous operations.
Yarra Drones is one of few Australian-built, CASA-approved drone safety platform providers since 2023 and was specifically selected by Airservices Australia to develop the next-generation UTM services delivery as a UAS Services Supplier (USS), that will power national drone operations at scale. Its platform includes AusSORA-based operational workflows designed to support compliant enterprise drone operations across the country.
FlytBase is the enterprise Physical AI platform for drone autonomy. The platform enables organisations to run automated drone missions, manage fleets remotely, and scale dock-based operations across a hardware-agnostic ecosystem, with deployments spanning security, inspections, emergency response, and infrastructure monitoring.
Together, the companies will support enterprises, government agencies, drone operators, and OEMs looking to build compliant, scalable, and OEM-agnostic drone operations in Australia.
“Australian drone operators are entering a new phase where compliance and operational scalability need to work together. By partnering with FlytBase, we can support customers with trusted UTM services delivery expertise alongside an enterprise-grade autonomous drone operations platform that supports multiple hardware ecosystems and deployment models,” said Ravi Murty, Founder and Chief Remote Pilot, Yarra Drones.
“Operators scaling autonomous drone programmes need flexibility alongside compliance and operational reliability. This partnership combines Yarra Drones’ regulatory and UTM expertise in Australia with FlytBase’s globally deployed autonomous drone operations platform, helping organisations build scalable drone operations without being locked into proprietary hardware ecosystems,” said Nitin Gupta, Founder and CEO, FlytBase.
