- A purpose built research facility housing 30+ research staff and specialist equipment;
- An airborne systems laboratory – a custom modified Cessna 172R flight test aircraft;
- Autonomous fixed-wing and helicopter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS);
- A field deployable flight test operations centre;
- Multi-user interactive table;

ARCAA equipment and facilities were funded by a Queensland State Government, Smart State Research Facilities Fund.
