Drone repair shop software
Drone repair is a specialist trade split between hobbyists (DJI Mini, FPV builds) and commercial pilots (Mavic Enterprise, Autel) with very different needs — flight-log analysis, insurance-claim paperwork, parts sourcing across continents. a1RepairFlow handles the intake-to-return workflow with the compliance paperwork insurers and SKAT both expect.
Why drone shops switch
You've probably hit one of these in the last week. Each one is a specific gap between what a generic retail POS does and what a drone repair shop actually needs.
A commercial pilot's crashed Mavic Enterprise goes through insurance — the carrier wants pre-condition photos, parts receipts, labour time, and the final invoice as one package. Full audit trail per ticket packages this automatically.
Diagnosing a motor failure is faster with the flight log, which the customer forgot to bring. Intake form prompts for the log file + crash coordinates + GPS fix time. Customer gets a tracker URL to upload it later.
A specific gimbal motor is 10 days from DJI's Shenzhen depot. Open-PO visibility per ticket keeps the customer informed instead of chasing updates. Status change triggers SMS: 'part ordered, ETA 10 days'.
Everything a drone shop needs
The modules below cover the specific workflow a drone shop runs — intake, parts, invoicing, warranty, customer communication, trade-in.
DJI, Autel, Parrot, FPV custom builds — each with its own intake form. Serial + flight-controller model + firmware version captured. Flight-log upload field with a tracker-URL for post-intake upload.
Standard 8-angle photo capture on intake with the ticket number burned-in. Insurance carriers accept this format directly. Audit-proof if a dispute arises later.
Multi-line invoicing with parts, labour, and shipping separated for insurance carrier submission. bogføringslov §§4-5 compliant. Reverse-charge for CVR-registered commercial customers.
Parts quoted on the ticket + supplier + lead time + status (quoted, ordered, received, allocated). Customer-visible on the tracker: 'gimbal motor ordered, ETA 10 days'. No chasing.
Received, in diagnosis, waiting for parts, repaired, test-flown, ready for pickup — each stage sends an SMS automatically. Hobbyists love this; commercial pilots demand it.
