Straightforward Aerial Raptor Hybrid hooked up and free flying drone

The new Easy Aerial Raptor is a drone for the future of autonomous applications. The hybrid tethered or free-fly drone-in-a-box system gives companies unprecedented flexibility to use the best mode for the mission.

Based in the USA, Easy Aerial provides autonomous drone-based inspection, surveillance and surveillance solutions for commercial, government and military applications. Easy Aerial offers a range of drones designed for different uses: The Raptor drone “is however the first of its kind to allow operators to fly tethered or untied and the ability to hang out in flight”.

Raptor is a drone-in-a-box solution – a drone that can charge itself without assistance and is designed for autonomous missions. The tether enables “ongoing situation awareness or ongoing monitoring by providing the field service personnel or the command center with a continuous data and video feed”.

The really unique thing about this latest product is the ability to switch from tether to free flying – even in mid-flight. “After a command from an operator, a triggered alarm or if the on-board sensors detect a preselected object, the tether is released, lowered by parachute and reeled back into its ground station. The Raptor then continues an autonomous or manually operated pursuit mission in free flight. “

“After completing its target or when the on-board batteries run low, the system automatically returns to the Easy Guard for a precision landing, even if the ground station has been relocated.”

In a surveillance situation, the new capability means that the drone can notify personnel of an intruder – and then follow the intruder to provide further information to the command center. It is a powerful feature for military or civilian operations.

The Raptor’s hybrid system makes it well suited for remote surveillance or surveillance missions, day and night, even in extreme weather conditions. In free flight mode, the system can fly up to 12 miles at speeds in excess of 60 MPH with a maximum payload capacity of 4.5 pounds. In addition, the system supports a wide range of optical and thermal sensors to meet all specific operational needs.
