The UAV Technology Studio focuses on the R&D and application of UAV technologies, with two functional departments: the Technology R&D Department and the Culture & Publicity Department. The Technology R&D Department comprises multiple specialized project teams covering aerial photography, power line inspection, swarm UAVs, manned e-VTOL, aerial hanging screens and more. Adopting a project-based operation model, the studio follows the principle of valuing horizontal collaboration over hierarchical management. Driven by diverse projects, it breaks down barriers between traditional technical fields and builds a cross-disciplinary practical platform for students.

Upholding the philosophy of integrating theory with practice and learning through application, the studio regularly arranges on-site R&D and operational practices for its members. It has also established in-depth cooperation with enterprises including Xilong Technology, Lexin Innovation and Grepow Battery, offering students opportunities for industry exchanges and technical training. For talent development, it implements a three-in-one training model combining theoretical learning, practical operation and safety education. Authorized training courses are provided for qualifications such as CAAC Civil UAV Pilot License and UAV Assembly, Commissioning and Maintenance Technician Certificate. More than 30 members have obtained the Medium Beyond Visual Line of Sight UAV Operator License and participated in the development of national examination question banks.

The studio fosters a strong academic research atmosphere. Its members have participated in the College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Program, securing 1 national-level project, 1 provincial-level project and 7 university-level projects with a total funding of 85,000 yuan. Key research achievements include the Tianxun manned e-VTOL, educational UAVs, dual-carbon monitoring UAV systems and pole & tower inspection UAVs. The Xilong No.1 flying motorcycle, an e-VTOL jointly developed with Xilong Technology, completed its maiden flight in August 2025. In September the same year, it secured a USD 5 million angel round financing deal at the China-ASEAN Expo. The product can be applied to medical emergency rescue, disaster relief and other scenarios.

In terms of public services, responding to Guangdong Province's Hundred-Thousand-Ten Thousand Project in 2025, the studio set up 14 task forces to deliver community services in Lianping. Several projects have been recognized as university-level brand projects and recommended for provincial evaluation. Meanwhile, the studio actively takes part in enrollment promotion, campus open days and research summer camps. Its members have given lectures and staged flight demonstrations in many secondary schools, and some serve as professional trainers, contributing to the popularization of UAV knowledge.
