[PROJECT_OVERVIEW]
This multifunctional multi-rotor drone is utilized for aerial photography, monitoring, cartography, logistics, and other industrial applications, with the capability to be equipped with modular attachments for specialized tasks. It features a payload capacity of 37 kg, with a flight duration of 22 minutes when carrying a load and 11 minutes without a load.
The drone is equipped with swappable Li-Po batteries; a winch or payload release mechanism can be attached to its underside. It features a camera mounted on a gimbal, offering 30x zoom capabilities. Two independent communication systems are installed: a primary link operating at 1.4 GHz (5 W) for video and telemetry, and a backup system consisting of either encrypted analog video at 1.2 GHz paired with an ELRS module at 750 MHz (25 W), or a module enabling control via cellular network (for telemetry and video).
