Our team just got back from a week long trip to XiAn, China, providing support to a newly delivered UAV helicopter from Germany.

The 3-bladed industrial UAV helicopter is approximately 3m in length, powered by a 300cc water-cooled Wankel rotary engine, with a MTOW of 100kg.

With a fuel capacity of 37 liters, the UAV helicopter is capable of 5 hours of continuous flight on a single tank.

This unique UAV helicopter is controlled by our SK1000 Autopilot System, providing full autonomous flight and mission planning, including auto takeoff and landing.

Preliminary flights have been completed with great results, and more to follow in the months to come.

Check out the photos of this cool UAV helicopter.

Great week at the first International Conference on Computer and Drone Applications (ICONDA) 2017.

We met representative from the civil defense force, search and rescue, geological mining, forestry, universities etc and look forward to working with all of them utilizing UAV helicopters technologies in their studies and applications.

We had the opportunity to do a live flight demo with our helicopter in front of the entire crowd, show casing the performance of our UAV helicopter and autopilot system.

A great week working together and sharing ideas with the Agriculture Development Authority of Malaysia in the state of Kedah and Penang.

The GX9 UAV helicopter is controlled by our SK900 autopilot system, providing w**d killer and pesticide spray applications for paddy plantations.

Compared to an electric drone/multirotor crop sprayer, a gasoline powered helicopter is able to carry 10-15L of liquid spray and fly for one hour or more continuously. This eliminates the need to constantly swap and recharge the batteries used in electric drone/multirotor, thus saving time and reducing battery cost significantly.

A very enjoyable weekend with the students and faculty staff at the Petronas University of Technology in Perak, Malaysia.

Our team was honored to meet Dr Kamil, Dean of Faculty of Science & Information Technology and discuss about our UAV autopilot system and software, as well as future plans for the University and applications of unmanned system in Malaysia.

We were able to provide a hands-on flight demonstration of our autopilot system and ground software, allowing Dr Kamil to take control over the UAV helicopter, while still maintaining in full autonomous flight mode.

An exciting future ahead!
