4+1 motivation

Four rotors for vertical take-off and landing, and one motor for cruising

4+1 power matrix layout: the four-rotor provides lift during takeoff and landing, and the tail propulsion motor relays the power after turning to level flight. This not only avoids dependence on runways, but also maintains the cruising efficiency of fixed wings - with the same battery, it can fly much further than a pure multi-rotor.

It provides lift during the vertical takeoff and landing phase, and then stops to reduce drag after turning to level flight.

What is VT04 actually used for?

The 5 most frequently asked questions before choosing a model

Short answer, no sales talk. Your question was not found, please use the form at the bottom of the page.

Can you fly without a runway?

able. This is a 4+1 vertical take-off and landing fixed-wing aircraft. During the take-off and landing phase, it relies on four rotors to move vertically up and down. It does not require a runway or ejection rack. It can take off within 5 minutes after deployment.

Under what conditions does the flight time last for 240 minutes?

240 minutes is the maximum endurance of the aircraft when empty (without load). It takes about 120 minutes when hanging 1.5 kg (standard load); it will be shorter when hanging up to the upper limit of 3 kg, which is calculated based on the task weight.

What can I carry with a 3 kg load?

Ortho/tilt five-lens surveying and mapping cameras, 30x visible light gimbal, infrared dual-sensor or three-sensor gimbal, and gas detection gimbal can be mounted, and OEM/ODM customization is also supported.

Can I fly when it rains?

The entire body is rainproof and can be operated in moderate rain conditions. Thunderstorms and strong winds are not within the scope, and the wind resistance is calibrated to >6 level headwind.

Is it easy to transport?

The fuselage and wings are modular and quick-detachable. Once disassembled, it can be installed into a 1470×560×400 mm flight box, which can be placed in the trunk of an ordinary SUV.
