  • Very cool. Transition to horizontal requires a dive unlike a helicopter with this power to weight apparently. Congrats to the team.

  • Yes, this version had a very small amount of excess thrust in hover and needed to dive 50 feet to pick up flying speed. Newer versions are more powerful and loose less altitude.

  • That is amazing and looks very stable, could you land it like a normal plane as well? What cost would one be to buy? Well done.

  • The idea is to eliminate the landing gear and need for runways, so it can only take off and land vertically. This will be available only as a fully autonomous UAV and will cost between $100K and $200K including ground station, stabilized gimbal sensor system, and support equipment.
