AeroKontiki Engineering

Built with precision, AeroKontiki combines advanced materials and intelligent design to deliver unmatched performance in drone-based longline fishing. From its carbon fiber frame to its high-efficiency motor system, every component is purpose-built for stability, strength, and control, giving fishers the confidence to launch, haul, and land with power and ease.

How It Works

From setup to seafood, deploying AeroKontiki is fast, easy, and efficient.

1

Connect Your Line

Attach a leader line with 25 traces and sinkers to your electric game reel or winch spooled with braid.

2

Arm the Release Mechanism

Loop the other end of the line to AeroKontiki’s integrated release system built for smooth, controlled bait drops.

3

Launch & Haul Out

Fly AeroKontiki up to 1.5 km (LOS) offshore. Once you reach your target spot, the drone drops the baited line into the water.

4

Auto-Return with GPS

AeroKontiki’s built-in GPS ensures it returns and lands precisely where it launched, hands-free.

5

Wait. Catch. Reel In.

Sit back and monitor your winch. In about 40 minutes, you’ll be ready to haul in your line and enjoy the catch.

Built to Haul, Not to Float

Aerokontikis aren’t made to sit on the water — they’re engineered to haul with power, precision, and reliability. Floating isn’t needed for longline fishing, because the drone never rests on the sea.

Each Aerokontiki is crafted from carbon fibre and marine-grade components, with smart features that protect against salt, sand, and rain. The focus is simple: consistent hauling strength and dependable performance in real fishing conditions.
