eVTOL ISR UAS

Ether Form is developing a configurable Group 2 electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) unmanned aircraft system for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), rapid prototyping, communications and payload integration. The platform is designed to support vertical takeoff and landing, fixed-wing flight and modular mission configurations. Contact Ether Form to discuss current development status, technical specifications and integration opportunities.

Key Features

  • Configurable electronics pod in the lower half of the aircraft provides a volume for customer payloads (e.g., sensors, communications equipment, or cameras) up to 4 kg.
  • High energy density battery provides 5 Hours of continuous operation with extended battery options for increased endurance. Extended battery configurations are available to meet mission requirements.
  • Tilt rotor design reuses VTOL motors for forward flight, reducing total weight while enabling the motors to operate in a high-efficiency (low power) state.
  • Infrastructure independent takeoff and recovery eliminate dependence on fixed launch infrastructure, large support equipment, and prepared operating surfaces.
  • Easy to use mission planning enables autonomous operation with waypoint navigation, geofencing, loitering and payload triggers. Utilizes MAVLink, an the industry standard protocol command and control protocol.

Specifications

  • 25kg Maximum Takeoff Weight
  • 350km Range, Altitude up to 1000m (typical)
  • LIDAR assisted takeoff and landing
  • Light-weight and strong carbon-fiber airframe
  • NDAA Compliant, design and built in Oregon, USA
