HEXO+

Squadrone System, the company behind HEXO+, was founded in 2014 by Antoine Level, Sylvain Montreuil, Christophe Baillon, Xavier De Le Rue, Matthieu Giraud and Medhi Mugnier, a team that has more than 20 years of expertise in movie production and critical flight navigation. With the goal of creating the best way to capture amazing bird's eye view shots with an autonomous filming done and a simple smartphone app, HEXO+ was born. After closing out a Kickstarter campaign in July 2014, HEXO+ raised $1.3M from 2,300 backers and currently holds endorsements from twelve world-class athletes and cinematographers. The company was initially financed by Startup Maker, a French accelerator based in Grenoble.
