Orqa is one of the few companies in the FPV market that does almost all of its engineering in house: mechanical engineering, electronics design, RF design, firmware development, optics design, prototyping, etc. All of our products are labelled as “Made in Europe” since everything, except micro-displays, is made in Osijek.

The prototyping lab in headquarters provides high-end equipment such as FDM 3D printer Stratsys F170, big SLS 3D Printer Formiga P110 Velocis, advanced laser cutters and CNC machining, as well as other relevant equipment needed for developing hardware devices. In addition, Orqa owns high end RF design and testing tools.

(Note: The company was founded in 2018, so this is what can be done in 8 years with limited funding)
