Products: inspection, mapping. Risk band: Elevated RobotRisk index 26.7/100 (incidents/exposure, time-weighted) · 99th percentile of 171 drones evtol companies.
Skydweller Aero's record consists of a single crash entry, an unmanned aircraft system loss attributed in the source reporting to weather conditions, carrying severity 4. This one event drives an index of 26.9, placing the company at the 98.8th percentile within the drones-evtol category, an elevated band despite the minimal row count. The record is press-driven, sourced from incident reporting rather than a regulatory action. As a single-event record, it does not demonstrate a pattern of recurring failure modes; the elevated standing reflects the severity of the sole logged crash rather than volume.
