The goal is not innovation for innovation’s sake. The goal is giving users more effective tools at the tactical edge.” The validation event, hosted by Red Cat and SPiDRWORX in the Salt Lake City area, brought together Red Cat teams and select technology partners to test and evaluate integrations on Red Cat systems, including Black Widow™ and Teal 2. The event was designed to validate partner technologies in mission-relevant scenarios and help move successful integrations closer to future customer use.
