DX-3 VANGUARD

DX-3 VANGUARD

<p>The DX-3 Vanguard is the most disruptive long-range drone to enter the market, with a specialization in extended flight duration, remote inspections, and motoring. The DX-3 Vanguard features hydrogen fuel cell batteries &ndash; capable of 25hrs of flight, LiDAR and Infrared cameras, and is capable of beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) flight.</p> <p>&nbsp;The Vanguard is designed to perform in challenging conditions and deliver live data processing. It can carry up to 3kg of payload. It has sensors, including high-resolution cameras, and can also be used for LiDAR Imagery for 3D mapping.</p> <p><strong>Features</strong></p> <ul> <li>24-Hour flight time</li> <li>1500km Range</li> <li>Satellite, Radio, and Cellular capabilities providing beyond visual line-of-sight</li> <li>Vertical take-off and landing (VTOL)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Specification</strong></p> <p><strong>Dimensions</strong></p> <ul> <li>Wingspan&nbsp; -&nbsp; 4.0m</li> <li>Length&nbsp; -&nbsp; 2.4m</li> <li>Height (landing gear extended)&nbsp; -&nbsp; 0.685m</li> <li>Height (landing gear retracted)&nbsp; -&nbsp; 0.45m</li> </ul> <p><strong>Weight</strong></p> <ul> <li>w/ max gas&nbsp; -&nbsp; 34kg</li> <li>w/ VTOL batteries + max gas&nbsp; -&nbsp; 41kg</li> <li>w/ VTOL batteries + max. gas + max. payload&nbsp; -&nbsp; 46 kg</li> <li>Airframe and Avionics Only&nbsp; -&nbsp; 27.3kg</li> </ul> <p><strong>Flight Parameters</strong></p> <ul> <li>Cruise speed&nbsp; -&nbsp; 90 to 112 km/h (25 m/s to 28 m/s)</li> <li>Min/Max speed&nbsp; -&nbsp; 60 km/h (stall) to 144 km/h</li> <li>Min/Max AoA&nbsp; -&nbsp; -8 to +8 degrees</li> <li>Wind resistance&nbsp; -&nbsp; 30km/h crosswinds</li> <li>Service Ceiling&nbsp; -&nbsp; 4.0 m</li> <li>Operating Temperature&nbsp; -&nbsp; -15 to +40℉C (-4 to 104℉F)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Propulsion Systems</strong></p> <ul> <li>Forward Flight&nbsp; -&nbsp; gas engine</li> <li>VTOL&nbsp; -&nbsp; 4 x ducted fans + rotated gas engine</li> <li>VTOL Batteries&nbsp; -&nbsp; 2 x 3.7 kg LiPo batteries (ea. 16000mAh) Chargers included, 12 min. fast charge per battery</li> <li>Gasoline fuel&nbsp; -&nbsp; Up to 7kg of automotive-grade gasoline</li> </ul> <p><strong>VTOL Transition Parameters</strong></p> <ul> <li>Total VTOL Hovering Time&nbsp; -&nbsp; 5 minutes</li> <li>Climb to 30m (100ft)&nbsp; -&nbsp; ~15 seconds</li> <li>VTOL Transition&nbsp; -&nbsp; 12 seconds (no wind)</li> <li>Note:&nbsp; -&nbsp; transition is automated</li> </ul> <p><strong>Communications</strong></p> <ul> <li>Radio&nbsp; -&nbsp; 900MHz and 2.4GHz radios, up to 10km Directional antenna and amplifiers may extend to 100km</li> <li>Cellular&nbsp; -&nbsp; 3G &amp; 4G LTE, capable of streaming live payload, telemetry, and control data</li> <li>Satellite&nbsp; -&nbsp; GEO satellite constellation, global coverage Up to 100 kbps for telemetry, control and pilot FPV cams</li> </ul> <p>Source -&nbsp;https://theskyguys.ca/drone-technology/dx-3-vanguard/</p>

LX-1 ECHELON

LX-1 ECHELON

<p>The LX-1 &ldquo;Echelon&rdquo; is a professional-grade hexacopter equipped with LiDAR sensing payload designed for a wide range of high-resolution 3D mapping and&nbsp;<a href="https://theskyguys.ca/drone-services/aerial-power-line-inspection/">surveying applications</a>. With a total take-off weight of 12kg, the LX-1 can produce stitched 3D maps with 2-3cm accuracy&mdash;allowing surveyors to measure topography on a wide scale, and power line operators to inspect their lines and surrounding vegetation. The software system is plug-and-play, so that the pilot can record and process data without the need for advanced remote sensing or GIS expertise. The complete package flies for up to 20 minutes, built with survey-grade dependability and all-round user friendliness in mind.</p> <p><strong>Features</strong></p> <ul> <li>Power Lines &amp; Linear Corridors</li> <li>Forestry &amp; Environmental Management</li> <li>Transportation &amp; Construction</li> <li>Topographic Surveying &amp; Mapping</li> <li>Volumetrics and Aggregates</li> <li>Accurate Data. LiDAR resolution &lt;3cm with telemetry, RTK, and Kalman filtering for stitching.</li> <li>Simple Software. User interfaces for operating the LiDAR payload and the 3D stitching.</li> <li>First Person Views. The LX-1 comes integrated with a front-facing camera that live streams to the pilot&rsquo;s hand controller, making it easier for experts and non-experts to fly.</li> <li>3D-Printable Spares. The LX-1 is based on DJI&rsquo;s M600 hexacopter platform with all mechanical modifications fully 3D-printable! Should you ever require spare parts, you can print them yourself or we can print and send them to you.</li> <li>Rugged transport case. The LX-1 package is delivered in a rugged transport case that can easily fit into pickup truck bays or be shipped as oversized baggage.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Specifications</strong></p> <p><strong>Dimentions &amp; Weight</strong></p> <ul> <li>Diagonal Wheelbase&nbsp; -&nbsp; 1133 mm</li> <li>Aircraft Dimensions (Propellers, frame arms and GPS/RTK mounts unfolded)&nbsp; -&nbsp; 1688 mm x 1518 mm x 859 mm</li> <li>Aircraft Dimensions (Frame arms and GPS/RTK mounts folded)&nbsp; -&nbsp; 640 mm x 582 mm x 673 mm</li> <li>Weight (with six TB47S batteries + LiDAR attachments)&nbsp; -&nbsp; 12.1 kg</li> <li>Max Takeoff Weight&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;15.1 kg</li> </ul> <p><strong>Drone</strong></p> <ul> <li>Motor Models&nbsp; -&nbsp; DJI 6010</li> <li>Propeller Model&nbsp; -&nbsp; DJI 2170</li> <li>Retractable Landing Gear&nbsp; -&nbsp; Standard</li> <li>Operating Temperature&nbsp; -&nbsp; 14&deg; to 104&deg; F (-10&deg; to 40&deg; C)</li> <li>Charger Model&nbsp; -&nbsp; A14-100P1A</li> <li>Charger Voltage Output&nbsp; -&nbsp; 26.3 V</li> <li>Max Angular Velocity&nbsp; -&nbsp; Pitch: 300&deg;/s, Yaw: 150&deg;/s</li> <li>Max Pitch Angle&nbsp; -&nbsp; 25*</li> <li>Max Speed of Ascent&nbsp; -&nbsp; 5 m/s</li> <li>Max Speed of Descent&nbsp; -&nbsp; 3 m/s</li> <li>Max Wind Resistance&nbsp; -&nbsp; 8 m/s</li> <li>Max Flight Altitude above Sea Level&nbsp; -&nbsp; 2500 m</li> <li>Max Speed&nbsp; -&nbsp; 18 m/s (No wind) &ndash; flying at 5m/s or slower is recommended for best LiDAR quality</li> <li>Hovering Time&nbsp; -&nbsp; 3 kg LiDAR payload attachments: 20 min</li> <li>Flight Control System Model&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;A3 + custom microcontroller for LiDAR payload</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;<strong>Flight Battery</strong></p> <ul> <li>Model&nbsp; -&nbsp; TB47S</li> <li>Capacity&nbsp; -&nbsp; 4500 mAh</li> <li>Voltage&nbsp; -&nbsp; 22.2 V</li> <li>Type&nbsp; -&nbsp; LiPo 6S</li> <li>Energy&nbsp; -&nbsp; 99.9 Wh</li> <li>Net Weight&nbsp; -&nbsp; 595 g</li> <li>Operating Temperature&nbsp; -&nbsp; 14&deg; to 104&deg; F (-10&deg; to 40&deg; C)</li> <li>Storage Temperature (less than 3 months)&nbsp; -&nbsp; -4&deg; to 113&deg; F (-20&deg; to 45&deg; C)</li> <li>Storage Temperature (more than 3 months)&nbsp; -&nbsp; 72&deg; to 82&deg; F (22&deg; to 28&deg; C)</li> <li>Max Charging Power&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;180 W</li> </ul> <p><strong>Remote Controller Specs</strong></p> <ul> <li>Operating Frequency&nbsp; -&nbsp; 5.725 GHz to 5.825 GHz 2.400 GHz to 2.483 GHz</li> <li>Max Transmission Distance (unobstructed, free of interference)&nbsp; -&nbsp; FCC Compliant: 3.1 miles (5 km)</li> <li>Mobile Device Holder&nbsp; -&nbsp; Supports smartphones and tablets</li> <li>Output Power&nbsp; -&nbsp; 9 W</li> <li>Operating Temperature&nbsp; -&nbsp; 14&deg; to 104&deg; F (-10&deg; to 40&deg; C)</li> <li>Storage Temperature (less than 3 months)&nbsp; -&nbsp; -4&deg; to 113&deg; F (-20&deg; to 45&deg; C)</li> <li>Storage Temperature (more than 3 months)&nbsp; -&nbsp; -4&deg; to 113&deg; F (-20&deg; to 45&deg; C)</li> <li>Charge Temperature&nbsp; -&nbsp; 32&deg; to 104&deg; F (0&deg; to 40&deg; C)</li> <li>Built-in Battery&nbsp; -&nbsp; 6000 mAh, 2S LiPo</li> <li>Max Tablet Width&nbsp; -&nbsp;&nbsp;170 mm</li> </ul> <p>Source -&nbsp;https://theskyguys.ca/drone-technology/lx-1-echelon/</p>
