AUSA 2024: Quantum-Systems targets big 2025 with UAS developments
Quantum-Systems has been upgrading its UAS family, with new versions of the Vector, Reliant and Twister drones set for release throughout 2025.
Delair launches UX11 UAS
Delair launched a new next-generation UAS for survey-grade photogrammetric mapping, called the UX11, on 26 September.
The UX11 is a small, fixed-wing UAS that combines a powerful integrated onboard system, industry-grade sensors and communication systems.
The UAS can process captured imagery and send it to the operator in real-time. The UX11's communications system includes a line-of-sight radio and 3G/4G connectivity between the ground control station and the aircraft using a machine-to-machine pre-paid plan.
The UX11 is lightweight, stable, is hand-launched and lands using distance measuring technology. The Android mission planning software has features such as support for in-flight camera feedback and live data review.
Designed for operations including GIS, survey, and construction, the UX11 flies for 59 minutes at 122m (400ft) altitude above ground level.
