Skywalker Technology Co., Ltd. from Wuhan founded in 2009. The company designs and produces professional aircraft-type UAVs. The brand's assortment includes flying wings X8 and X5 Pro v2. Skywalker produces FPV aircraft Skywalker 1900 and 2015. The FO-30 model is controlled via fiber optics over a distance of over 30 km. All aircraft are made from durable composite and carbon fiber.

• Vertical takeoff and landing without a prepared runway.
• Carbon fiber for maximum rigidity and lightness.
• Flight time up to 240 minutes (4 hours) on a single charge.
• Level 6 wind resistance for extreme conditions.
• Payload 3 kg for professional equipment.

How the Skywalker SKY245 VTOL drone works

Four vertical motors lift the drone like a copter. The device freezes and gains altitude. Then the horizontal motor accelerates the plane. Wings create lift for long flights. The autopilot guides the drone along a given route. Cameras and sensors collect data from the air. After the mission, the device switches to copter mode for landing.

Technical characteristics and functionality

The SKY245 is built from carbon fiber composite. The wingspan is 2450 millimeters. The fuselage length is 1250 mm. The maximum take-off weight reaches 13.5 kg. Payload is 3 kg for cameras and lidars. Cruising speed is 75 km/h. The maximum speed reaches 120 km/h. The practical ceiling is 5000 meters. Wind resistance corresponds to level 6 (strong wind).

Flight time on a single charge reaches 240 minutes (4 hours). The VTOL system uses electric quadcopter motors. Cruise mode is powered by an electric pusher propeller.

The drone is equipped with large compartments for batteries and equipment. Battery compartment size 200×140×88 mm. The size of the payload compartment is 250x190x90 mm. The carbon fiber composite fuselage is very durable. The device is capable of operating in strong winds of level 6. 4 hours of flight covers vast territories per departure. You install thermal imagers, multispectral cameras or lidars. VTOL allows you to work in the mountains and in conditions without roads.
