About
Eagle Pods LLC is a Minnesota based company that designs and develops airborne senor systems (aka "Camera Pods") for manned aircraft. We specialize in mounting all types of sensors to aircraft for a variety of needs.
Eagle Pods LLC is an offshoot of it's sister company Eagle Eagle Photography LLC. The camera pods were originally designed, developed and sold under under Eagle Eye Photography's name ( www.BlimpGuy.com ). The decision was made to separate the products from the services in 2021, which gave birth to Eagle Pods LLC.
Our production facility and showroom is located at the Maple Lake Municipal Airport, in Maple Lake, Minnesota
