About

About SparkNavi

SparkNavi is the avionics brand of Taiwan-based Xiang Cheng Electronic, an engineering company with more than a decade of navigation and flight-control design experience. The product line combines high-reliability inertial navigation, GNSS/INS sensor fusion and programmable flight-control computers for long-lifecycle autonomous platforms.

SparkNavi Blue is designed and manufactured in Taiwan and supports ArduPilot across copter, plane, rover and sub configurations. The company emphasizes traceable component sourcing, direct engineering support and international compliance for defence and industrial customers. Korthos therefore treats SparkNavi as a professional avionics supplier rather than a complete-aircraft manufacturer.
