Radical was founded by a team of engineers who previously spent six years developing Amazon’s delivery drones. The company's core mission is to revolutionize global connectivity and earth observation through high-altitude, solar-powered aircraft. These aircraft operate autonomously at 70,000 feet in the stratosphere, providing services such as cell service, multi-spectral imagery collection, and weather and climate monitoring. Radical aims to offer an eco-friendly, cost-effective alternative for connecting and observing the Earth.
Notable affiliated individuals include the founding team with significant experience in drone technology from Amazon. Radical has achieved key milestones in developing zero-emissions aircraft that can autonomously navigate the stratosphere. The company's impact includes providing innovative solutions for global communication and environmental monitoring, positioning itself as a leader in sustainable aerospace technology.
