MCR reinforces its commercial strategy in the drone market with Flying Eye

The range of drone solutions from the French manufacturer Flying Eye, mainly focused on security, emergency management and industrial inspection, strengthens the wholesaler's proposal MCR in this environment and the ecosystem of DJI Enterprise in the markets of Spain and Portugal.

As exclusive distributor in Iberia, the strategic agreement with Flying Eye strengthens the position of the technology wholesaler MCR in the growing professional drone market, adding to its catalog the wide range of flight termination solutions (FTS) from this French manufacturer, compatible with its division with DJI Enterprise.

How do you explain Enrique Hernández, B2B director at MCR, 'We have been committed for years to expanding our value proposition in the B2B environment and this alliance with Flying Eye represents a natural step in that strategy. It is a brand with enormous potential in the field of professional drones, which also provides the backing of being integrated into the DJI Enterprise ecosystem. We are convinced that it will be a differentiating solution for our partners in key sectors such as security and industry.

Founded in 2009, the French company Flying Eye started at that time with multirotor drones, and has established itself as a reference in the development of UAS solutions (unmanned aerial systems), combining specialized hardware and software adapted to the most demanding operational needs in security environments, industrial inspection and emergency management, mainly.

With this agreement with MCR and its inclusion in the ecosystem of authorized DJI Enterprise brands (more details in Digital Security) it ensures the highest quality and compatibility of its products with the most widely used platforms on the market.

“Estamos encantados con esta nueva asociación exclusiva con MCR, que no sólo reconoce la calidad de los productos que ofrecemos de un actor importante en la península Ibérica, sino que también representa un verdadero catalizador para nuestro crecimiento -points out Simon Leroy, co-founder & managing director de Flying Eye-. Esta alianza estratégica permitirá a todos los pilotos remotos de los mercados español y portugués poner en conformidad sus vehículos aéreos no tripulados y continuar sus operaciones de acuerdo con la nueva reglamentación europea”.

Flying Eye ofrece una amplia selección de accesorios homologados, como paracaídas y sistemas de terminación de vuelo, inter alia. Todos ellos están orientados a las gamas de producto Matrice y Dock de DJI Enterprise, obtaining the C5 class markings, to comply with European legislation (MOC-2511 and MOC-2512) to different flight scenarios, including BVLOS.

As Leroy adds, 'we are convinced that this alliance will allow our certified solutions to reach an increasingly broad professional audience and offer the necessary safety guarantees to the competent authorities'.

To Iván Álvarez, business unit manager of the professional drones division of MCR, 'this agreement with Flying Eye is much more than a catalog expansion: it is a strategic bet to position ourselves as a key player in the development of the professional drone market in Spain and Portugal'.

With the aim of continuing to bring innovative technologies closer to the professional channel, we incorporate solutions that meet the real needs of our clients and that perfectly complement our approach as a reference technology partner. We expect a very positive impact on the business, both in the short and medium term, concludes Álvarez.
