Altus Unmanned Aerial Solutions International Ltd designed and assembled drones, combining ruggedness with cutting-edge technology, in Hastings. It went into liquidation following a creditors' meeting on April 30, a month after a voluntary administrator had been appointed. “Over time, the viability of the business diminished, and the shareholders could not agree on a specific direction or way forward for the company. Other directors of the company resigned and left the existing director with no other options but to place the company into voluntary administration so the company could enter into a formal insolvency process,” the liquidators said.
