Autel DragonFish: Autonomous Commercial VTOL Drone
Autel DragonFish: Autonomous Commercial VTOL Drone
In this episode, the Roswell Flight Test Crew speaks with Tim Matthews of Autel about the company’s DragonFish commercial unmanned aircraft system (UAS). At the Commercial UAV Expo 2019 in Las Vegas, the DragonFish completed its maiden flight in the United States, operating autonomously. A Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) platform, the DragonFish launches and recovers like a conventional multirotor. However, once airborne, it transitions to fixed-wing flight to achieve a flight time of over 100 minutes. The DragonFish has been developed for a wide array of use cases, including commercial and industrial operations, as well as persistent public safety surveillance. Capable of carrying a variety of payloads in an interchangeable sensor mount, the DragonFish can deliver visible light video, thermal imaging and potentially custom payloads including LiDAR.
Can you advice if we need to use Drone for commercial fishing for Tuna Purse Seiner instead of Helicopter? Give advice. Please
The Osprey already does this. What’s the big deal?
vtol shoft
May put sensors all over the body,ie 4K cameras ,so no moving parts for.
This guy’s clearly didn’t want to state the cost min to max that’s means it will be through the roof!!!
I always wonder why nobody builds big and huge drones like the size of a truck or bigger than a truck
What does he mean in the "teens" pricing? $1,500 or $15,000 ?
Is there a particular problem or issue that this drone provides a solution to that has otherwise conventionally been solved differently with less efficiency?
What I wanna know is what are you doing as a reviewer to help us with our hobby 🕹🛸 against the FAA(💩) mess?
You can buy a cheap vtol for $200 so not slick tech
This is no different than the Osprey. Just crappier in design
Thank you so much for sharing 😍
Thank you Autel for making a vtol, now lets work on a lower cost gopro or flir camera payload.
Roswell Flight Test Crew what a freak, I bet the fat guy wears his mother underwear at home…
What’s it’s payload including EO/IR camera
So did Autel have the new Evo2 on display? I hope it comes to fruition.
That would be great with a multi-spectral payload for agriculture NDVI.
Is this something a normal person can buy? Surprised that it has 30km video range, while a Autel Evo 2 "only" has 9km.
