Hybrid Advanced Multi-Rotor

Ease of Use of a Multi-Rotor with the Flight Time of a Fixed Wing

ENDURANCE AND POWER

A maximum flight time of 3.5+ hours or a maximum payload capacity of 11 lbs.

Unique Hybrid Electric Propulsion enables 6x increase in flight time over conventional battery powered multi-rotors.

MOBILITY

Highly mobile, with a small logistical footprint. The storage case is small enough to be brought on an airliner in checked luggage and is transportable by one person.

BALANCE

Designed for operating in austere land or maritime conditions with minimal support infrastructure. In addition to flying for hours at a time, it is rapidly setup (less than 5 minutes), durable (IP54 rated), and field maintainable.

Aircraft Applications

Perimeter and Site Security
Base and Facilities Inspection
ISR-T (Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance and Targeting)
Maritime (blue water, littoral, riverine) Operations

Critical item logistics resupply
LIDAR for runway BDA and find UXO
Search & Rescue

Technical Specifications

Due to the design of AAC's unique engine vibration isolation system, this test plot confirms that there is negligible vibration imparted to the fuselage when the engine is running vs. when the engine is off. Please contact AAC to read the full report.
