  • Weather balloons — up to 120,000 m³, maximum altitude 35 km
  • Cargo aerostats — 500 kg payload, 30 continuous days
  • Real-time telemetry — 98% accuracy in ozone readings

Technical Advantages of Royal Balloons

Measurable results for exploration and telecommunications projects

Extreme coverage
Stratospheric reach

Balloons up to 120,000 m³ reaching 35 km altitude, enabling data collection in regions where no other means can reach.

98% accuracy
Reliable weather data

Calibrated onboard instruments recording temperature, pressure, humidity, and ozone with accuracy validated by the National Weather Service.

30 continuous days
Long-duration missions

Industrial aerostats operating up to 30 days without interruption, ideal for prolonged climate monitoring and signal repeaters in areas without coverage.

500 kg payload
Industrial load capacity

Designed to transport telecommunications equipment, geological sensors, and repeaters up to 500 kg at operational altitudes of 4 km.

Resistance to 80 km/h
Stability in extreme conditions

Rotating anchoring system that maintains the aerostat's position even with winds of 80 km/h, ensuring data link continuity.

99.5% availability
Real-time telemetry

Continuous data transmission with 99.5% availability, validated in field tests in the Puna de Atacama for critical applications.

“Royal Balloons' balloons allowed us to install signal repeaters in the Puna at an operating cost 60% lower than with conventional towers. The aerostat's stability exceeded our expectations even with 80 km/h winds.”

— Eng. Martín Quispe, Project Manager
Telefónica del Sur

“We worked with Royal Balloons on the ozone monitoring campaign in Patagonia. The precision of the data and the reliability of the telemetry system were key to validating our satellite measurements.”

— Dr. Laura Giménez, Principal Investigator

Why Choose Royal Balloons

Our aerospace engineering is designed for real-world high-altitude operating conditions.

C-7 Composite Materials

Polyethylene laminate with fiberglass reinforcement that reduces helium permeability by 40% and extends envelope service life up to 45 days in continuous missions.

Rotary Anchoring for 80 km/h Winds

Mooring system developed for the Puna de Atacama that maintains aerostat position even with lateral gusts, ensuring a stable data link.

Real-Time Telemetry at 35 km

Communication platform that transmits ozone, pressure, and temperature data with 98% accuracy validated in scientific campaigns over Patagonia.

99.5% Link Availability

Stability and energy consumption tests conducted in the field demonstrate service continuity exceeding 99% over 30 days of uninterrupted operation.

Institutional Trust

We collaborate with the National Meteorological Service and Argentine science and technology agencies. Our stratospheric balloons are used for ozone layer monitoring and deployment of telecommunications repeaters in areas without terrestrial coverage.

Frequently asked questions about stratospheric balloons

We produce high-altitude weather balloons (up to 40 km) for atmospheric data collection and industrial cargo aerostats with a capacity of up to 500 kg. Our designs include telemetry systems, control valves, and rotating anchors for continuous operation in extreme conditions.

Through our B2B portal you can complete the quote request form. Specify the estimated payload, target altitude, mission duration, and expected environmental conditions. Our engineering team analyzes the requirements and delivers a technical and commercial proposal within 10 business days.

Yes, we include remote assistance and, depending on the project, deployment of technical personnel on site. Our service covers startup, sensor calibration, telemetry monitoring, and contingency resolution during the flight window. For long-duration missions, we offer scheduled maintenance plans.

Our balloons are manufactured under ISO 9001 quality standards and comply with the regulations of the National Civil Aviation Administration (ANAC) for unmanned aircraft operations. Each unit undergoes pressure, UV radiation resistance, and airtightness tests before delivery.

For standard models, the manufacturing lead time is 8 to 12 weeks. Custom designs, which require specific engineering or special materials, can take between 16 and 24 weeks. The schedule is defined in the technical proposal and adjusted according to the complexity of the payload and required tests.
