Frequently Asked Questions

What mission profile is 7D best suited for?

7D is designed for long-endurance surveillance, wide-area mapping, and industrial inspection tasks where heavy payload capability and VTOL deployment flexibility are both required.

How should buyers evaluate the 20 kg mission payload capacity?

The 20 kg mission payload supports advanced sensor suites and professional reconnaissance equipment. Final payload planning should consider mission range, route profile, and endurance targets.

Is the 4-hour endurance and 550 km range practical for field planning?

These values are mission-planning references under economic cruise conditions. Actual outcomes depend on payload configuration, weather, speed profile, and operating altitude.

What is the operational value of 4500 m altitude capability?

A 4500 m operating ceiling enables deployment in high-altitude and mountainous environments, improving mission reach for infrastructure inspection and reconnaissance operations.

Can teams switch between manual piloting and autonomous route execution?

Yes. The platform supports both manual flight and autonomous route flight, allowing operators to combine pilot control for dynamic conditions with repeatable automated routes for standardized data collection.

How are pricing and international delivery terms handled?

Pricing is inquiry-based and depends on payload package, mission configuration, and destination. Standard trade terms are FOB and CIF. DDP door-to-door service is not included in the standard scope.
