Our story:
ViewHawk was founded by an aviation professional with a lifetime immersed in aircraft design, operations, and training.
“My aviation journey started at twelve, designing and building model aircraft before drones became mainstream. It evolved through sailplane flying and into commercial aviation. The early hands-on understanding of aircraft systems and flight principles established a foundation that has never been abandoned.
Over the past 20+ years, that foundation evolved into a professional aviation career, progressing through commercial operations to airline captain, with deep exposure to safety systems, reliability engineering, operational discipline, and real-world decision-making under pressure.”
Peter Shields-Founder.
For two decades, unmanned systems have been limited by closed ecosystems, disposable product cycles, and design philosophies optimised for consumers—not operators. ViewHawk exists to change that.
We build enduring UAV platforms that operators can rely on, train on, and expand over time.
Driven by passion
We’re not just here to sell drones.
Our goal is to build enduring UAV platforms that operators can rely on, train on, and expand over time.
Every ViewHawk system is fully flight-tested, delivering a proven operational baseline straight out of the box.
