Flight parameters that enable every mission.
Load capacityconfiguration-dependentThe transport configuration carries up to 40 kg of cargo. Sensor payload capacity is determined by the installed equipment and fuel.Range of controlup to 100 kmA control range of up to 100 km supports missions beyond the immediate operating area.Generator2 kWA 2 kW onboard generator supplies the power needed by demanding mission payloads.Axis control4 axis (x, y, z + rotation)Four-axis control covers movement in space and rotation for precise helicopter manoeuvring.Max. speed100 km/hA maximum speed of 100 km/h enables rapid movement between operating areas.Datalink2x datalink (WaveRelay, L+C)Two datalink paths combine WaveRelay and L/C-band communication for mission connectivity.UAV empty weight145 kgThe empty aircraft weight defines the starting point for fuel, payload and mission configuration.MTOW200 kgA maximum take-off weight of 200 kg defines the upper limit of the complete flight configuration.Service ceiling2 000 m AMSLOperation up to 2,000 m AMSL supports deployments in elevated and varied terrain.Enduranceup to 4 hFlight endurance of up to four hours enables persistent observation and long mission cycles.
