Why ACE

Certified Remote Inspection Technology Experts

Air Control Entech

Air Control Entech are an agile team who take a consultative approach to your inspections.

This approach allows us to deliver exactly what you need to get the job done, deploying immediately with a range of state-of-the-art specialist equipment from UAVs to ROVs to crawlers.

Air Control Entech is the certified remote inspection technology expert, working directly with you as an independent partner, designing and implementing solutions for your complex and often unique problems.

We don’t only run with off-the-shelf technology. That can often be less effective, can take more time and not deliver the most effective results. We employ individuals at the forefront of the industry with the ability and the expertise to assess, design and manufacture the best remote inspection equipment and payloads to suit your exacting requirements.

Our Mission


Remove people from potentially hazardous environments using robotics. We use the right tool for the job and when it doesn’t exist we create it!
