Fixed-wing UAV · 1600 mm

A hand-launched fixed-wing drone that stays on the wing

A 1600 mm twin-motor fixed-wing UAV for long-range reconnaissance, mapping and survey. Two people, no launcher: it goes up from the hand and cruises at 60 to 70 km/h with the sensor of the mission in the nose.

01 / Specification

One fixed-wing airframe, from mapping to long-endurance ISR

All-up weight covers everything from a light fixed-wing mapping drone to a fully loaded long-range survey configuration. Endurance follows the weight and the battery pack.

02 / Airframe

Twin motors on the wing, clean fuselage below

Both propellers sit ahead of the wing, leaving the belly free for a gimbal or a mapping camera — the reason the same airframe works as a survey drone and a reconnaissance UAV. Losing one motor still leaves the aircraft flyable back to the launch point.

03 / Aerodynamics

Designed in CFD, then flown

Wing and fuselage were run through computational fluid dynamics before the first prototype: attached flow along the span, low interference between the fuselage and the wing root.

Typical missions

04 / Use
Reconnaissance

Quiet, small and quick to get airborne from any clearing.

Corridor survey

Roads, powerlines and pipelines flown as a single automated route.

Mapping

Photogrammetry sorties over fields, quarries and construction sites.

Border patrol

Repeatable patrol legs with the same route flown day after day.

Search & rescue

Grid search with a thermal camera over forest and open ground.

Operator training

Low-cost airframe for building crew hours before larger platforms.
