Based in Dayton, Ohio (45424), Parallax develops FPV drones and training systems for the Miami Valley and beyond. Explore FPV drone training and development services.
Parallax Arena is a patent-pending FPV drone game and training arena: small drones fly inside a netted or defined space with targets, obstacles, lighting, operator oversight, and live scoring. No projectiles. No kinetic engagement.
Parallax is led by a former U.S. Air Force EOD technician, EOD School Honor Graduate, lifelong FPV pilot, and hands-on systems builder now based in the Dayton, Ohio area.

Explore Arena →Open-source drone detection tool planned for public release in August 2026. Passive and detection-only.
Explore Argus →Low-cost sUAS targets for authorized training. Design goal: hundreds per target, not thousands.
Explore Aerofold →Compact drone speaker and audio payload for FPV and non-DJI platforms. Preorder coming soon.
View Clarion →Coming soon.
View GuardX →A small FPV drone moves through a defined space. Players or trainees react to targets, lights, timing, and score feedback while an operator supervises the run.
No projectiles. No kinetic engagement. The public concept uses wireless-based scoring and visible feedback so people can watch the loop without anything being fired inside the space.
Nets or defined boundaries, obstacles, targets, lights, and operator stations.
Launch, fly, react, score, reset. Simple enough to explain. Structured enough to improve.
Demo scoping, pilot feedback, kit design, and Kickstarter preparation are active now.
Different customers need the same thing: a way to put drones in front of people without turning every demo into an improvised field event.
Parallax is a member of the Siemens Solid Edge for Startups and Onshape for Startups programs. Arena hardware, kit modules, and tooling are designed in CAD/PDM workflows used across aerospace, defense, and advanced manufacturing. Read the Onshape Startup Program announcement.
