A first store for an Indian drone maker, from STEM kits to crop spraying

Aero 360 builds drones in Chennai. At one end of the range is ARIS i.r.a, the Aerial Robotic Intelligence System for Interactive Remote Assistance: a DIY drone and STEM learning kit under 100 grams, snap-fit with no tools, aimed at learners aged ten and up, with app-guided controls and an interactive voice assistant. At the other end is BHUMI A10E, a professional agriculture spraying drone with a 10 litre tank, GPS-guided flight and coverage of five to six acres an hour, sold at dealer pricing. One catalogue teaches, the other works.

The store is WooCommerce on WordPress, shaped around how India actually pays: Razorpay at checkout for UPI and cards, customer accounts with order tracking, and a manual stock field the team can update themselves without calling a developer. Because a kit product lives on its instructions, the build includes a tutorials section with video alongside the usual home, about and support pages, with SSL, a firewall and daily backups underneath.

The product architecture plans for the roadmap instead of rebuilding for it. ARIS i.r.a ships today with LITE, PRO and SPORTS variants already structurally planned, BHUMI A10E sits behind a contact-for-pricing flow rather than a cart, and every spare part, from propeller sets to flight controllers, is its own product, so a broken rotor never forces anyone to buy a second kit.

This one is shown mid-build, on purpose. The storefront, payments, accounts and product system you see in the capture are delivered and live; the client is still finalising product photography and content before launch. We would rather show real work in progress than borrow polish from a mockup.
