AeroClip Summit Installer
Our flagship live-line installer — first field-ready unit, 2026
Engineered for the job.
Flagship of the AeroClip platform — a purpose-built installer for conductor-mounted devices on energised high-voltage lines. First field-ready unit, 2026.
The AeroClip Summit Installer is the flagship of the AeroClip platform — the culmination of years of design iteration and field testing. The first unit is ready for field deployment in 2026.
One system, advancing continuously. AeroClip is not a catalogue of disconnected products. It is a single platform refined generation after generation. The Summit Installer is the current flagship; the Balmoral Marker variant is its sibling for diverter and marker work.
The airframe and installer payload are built as one — a unitary live-line installation tool, not a payload bolted to a drone.
The video above is from the Mk VII iteration — the seventh generation of the platform. The image is the first field-use Summit Installer.
