Developed “PD6-AW-W” medium-sized basic platform with winch
PRODRONE Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Naka-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture, President and CEO: Masakazu Kono, hereinafter referred to as PRODRONE) is pleased to announce that it has developed a medium-sized basic platform with a winch, ``PD6-AW-W,'' which can fly even in rainy weather. This machine will be on display at the PRODRONE booth at AUVSI Xponential 2017, the world's largest industrial drone exhibition, to be held in Dallas, USA from May 9th to 11th, 2017. "PD6-AW-W" uses the on-board winch to lift and suspend cargo while hovering. Since it is possible to unload cargo even in places where it is difficult to land a drone, it is expected to be useful in mountain and water-based sites. The PD6-AW-W is a medium-sized basic platform that boasts excellent performance, with a maximum payload of 5kg, a maximum speed of 65km/h, and a weight of 6kg. In addition, since it is all-weather type, it exhibits stable flight performance even during flights in rainy weather. Please look forward to the PD6-AW-W, which is expected to be used in a wide range of applications. Regarding the specific product outline, we will notify you as a new product announcement once the details have been finalized.
