The InView twin engine Remotely Piloted Aircraft

The InView twin engine Remotely Piloted Aircraft has impressive safety features, together with a 700 km range. It is large enough to carry professional sensors, with powerful on-board sensor data processing, but small enough to be easily transported in a small van. Take off can be from an unprepared strip.

See InView for more on the InView twin engine Remotely Piloted Aircraft.

A modular design with an open architecture

  • the reliable InView TWIN can fly on one engine;
  • the InView can be transported in the back of a small van, and then assembled and tested by two people within an hour;
  • by mounting the engines on the wings, the aircraft can fly very slowly and the engine induced vibration level is reduced, resulting in superior quality photographs. The safety provided by two engines is a requirement of the oil, gas and mineral exploration companies, for Unmanned Aircraft operation Beyond Line of Sight.
