HYBRID QUADROTOR™ TECHNOLOGY

OUR PARTNER HAVE DEVELOPED A NEW CONCEPT FOR LONG ENDURANCE VERTICAL TAKEOFF AND LANDING. UTILIZING CLOUD CAP TECHNOLOGY’S PICCOLO AUTOPILOT WE HAVE ENABLED A ROLE-EXPANDING CAPABILITY FOR UNMANNED SYSTEMS.

​

Hybrid Quadrotor technology offers an innovative and logistically simple solution to the problem of vertical takeoff and landing: it combines the vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capabilities of a quadrotor and the efficiency, speed, and range of a normal fixed-wing aircraft.

 

HYBRID QUADROTOR TECHNOLOGY OFFERS SIGNIFICANT ADVANTAGES OVER EXISTING “RUNWAY INDEPENDENT” UNMANNED AIR SYSTEMS, INCLUDING:

​

• Reduced operational footprint – no runway requirement, no approach obstacle issues, no launch/recovery infrastructure required.

• Portability – by eliminating launch and recovery equipment, there are significantly fewer items to transport and ship.

• Lower initial system cost – no launch and recovery infrastructure or expensive aircraft sensors required for VTOL capability.

• Reduced ongoing operational costs – fewer complex and cumbersome system elements to maintain, fewer people required to operate the system.
