Deseret UAS, a nonprofit created by Box Elder and Tooele counties to support the drone industry, celebrated the grand opening of its headquarters Wednesday.
Called the Xperience Center, it features collaborative meeting spaces, real-time test flight viewing and unmanned aerial system flight simulations. The nonprofit also offers companies access to several large test ranges for drone flights.
