Fully integrated system for 360° daylight HD -with 30X zoom- and night vision -with infrared camera- aerial surveillance.

The aerial observation with drone requires a great camera-related flexibility. Using a thermal camera and a powerful zoom are the key elements for successful drone operations.

The OnyxStar® FOX-C8 XT Observer drone equipped with the dual camera gimbal (HD day and night vision) was designed to perfectly fulfill these remote monitoring missions that can only be performed by UAVs.
The optical zoom (30X) of the HD Sony FCB EV7500 camera can clearly visualize an object located at more than two kilometers away from the drone.

This drone certified by the DGAC in France in category E, for scenario S1 and S2.

This aircraft includes all GPS functionalities allowing to navigate autonomously (automatic take-off and landing, waypoints flights, position and altitude hold, back to home, POI - points of interest, etc).

A delay is needed to deliver this system.
