Small electric < 7kg MTOW Multi-Rotor (MR) Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) for short-range high resolution (mm/cm) survey and mapping with Extended Line of Sight (E-VLOS) ready capability. Development The Seeker™ platform has been developed by V-TOL Aerospace to provide organisations requiring a survey (vertical & horizontal) and mapping capability, a CASA compliant, fully supported, low-cost, easy to use and reliable < 7kg class electric Multi-Rotor (MR) RPAS. Seeker is E-VLOS operations ready. The images can be processed post-flight to produce mm/cm accurate colour/multispectral mosaics. When used in conjunction with other tiers of mini-RPAS, such as the Goshawk Fixed Wing system, the Goshawk can provide broad area coverage (see Goshawk brochure for more information) while the VTOL system can be deployed to identify a specific target of interest to mm resolution. Description Airframe Developed using high strength yet light weight carbon fibre materials, has 4 power plants to provide a stable & efficient platform for airborne day operations < 400ft AGL. It is designed to be easily packed for ground vehicle or commercial airliner “flyaway” operations including batteries. It is fitted with LEDs for night navigation, as an option. Mission payloads The Seeker™ in the survey configuration carries hi-res 24 megapixel colour camera mounted on a 2-3 axis gimbal with on-board storage for post flight processing. This configuration allows for stabilised mapping of horizontal and vertical assets. A multi-spectral payload can also be fitted for environmental survey or agricultural applications.
