Wingcopter

The Wingcopter is the perfect platform to be equipped with high end sensors.

The latest Wingcopter 178 is a robust, powerful and versatile hybrid drone. The concept is a combination between a multicopter (UAV) and a wing aircraft (fixed wing). They developed a very efficient and patented tilt-rotor mechanism that has the benefits of both. It makes it possible to switch between multicopter mode and fixed wing mode within seconds. By doing this the Wingcopter can be vertically launched and landed anywhere. At the same time this smart rotor configuration allows long flight times and can cover a wide range. Thanks to the new aerodynamic design and the innovative tilt-rotors, the Wingcopter 178 remains stable in the air even at high speeds and under various weather conditions. The Wingcopter can be easily started and landed manually or autonomous using a tablet, and also offers autonomous intuitive control over long distances by means of a ground control station. The Wingcopter is the perfect platform to be equipped with high end sensors. In addition to aerial surveying, the Wingcopter is also suited for many other application areas such as crisis management, environmental protection, monitoring, security, film and the TV industry, as well as delivery services and logistics.
