“UT” stands for Ultrasonic Testing, an NDT technique used to inspect materials, detect flaws, or measure thickness using ultrasound without damaging the object being tested. The UT Payload is a module designed as a collaboration between Cygnus Instruments and Flyability. It is mounted on the Elios 3 drone and is used to perform ultrasonic testing. UT is not a simple technique and requires the correct training and understanding of the technology and its outputs.

Below you can find all the necessary material on how to use and correctly maintain the UT Payload by Flyability and how to manage and interpret the data collected by the Elios 3 UT drone.
