01/06/2017
Lumenier, a high-end designer and manufacturer of top quality racing drone products, expanded into 24,000 square foot facility one mile from downtown Sarasota, Florida. The new facility will be home to drone design engineers, customer service, fulfillment center personnel and corporate employees.

Lumenier is a high-end designer and manufacturer of top quality racing drone products, airframes, motors, batteries, propellers, electronics, antennas, and accessories. The company operates from its main headquarters in Sarasota, Florida with wholly owned manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and China. Leveraging their expert engineers in aeronautics, mechanical and electrical design, Lumenier has become known globally for its innovation and quality.

According to company officials, FPV Drone Racing and Freestyle flying have been growing exponentially over the past few years. Drone Racing Leagues have been popping up around the world.

"I started this business just 4 years ago working evenings out of a small New York City apartment” says Tim Nilson, Founder & Owner of Lumenier. “I'm humbled to be already outgrowing our first commercial building, and now building a facility five times as big from the ground up."

"These drones can exceed 100 MPH and reverse directions in a split second, do flips and pretty much out maneuver any vehicle on the planet." says Nilson. "It's not just racing that is fueling our growth. We have new contracts for large commercial applications, like drone delivery, search and rescue, and agriculture."
