Notes
The maximum flight time of 36 minutes is measured while hovering in still air. Actual flight time may vary depending on operating conditions.
The specified radio range of 3 km applies under line-of-sight conditions, at an altitude of approximately 122 m (400 ft), and in an uncongested RF environment.
The IP68 protection rating applies to the transport cases. The aircraft itself has an IP53 ingress protection rating.
The Inspection configuration features an EO camera with LED illumination and does not include a thermal imaging sensor.
