Wingtra High Altitude Propellers (Pair)
$390.00
High-altitude propellers, which enable unprecedented accuracy and coverage for a professional mapping drone capturing data above 2500 m (8200 ft) above mean sea level (AMSL).
As air becomes thinner at higher altitudes, the ability for standard propellers to generate enough thrust to lift an aircraft is compromised. Their shape must change to lift through these conditions.
- Take-off at altitudes of up to 4800 m (15,700 ft) AMSL
- Flight at altitudes of up to 5000 m (16,400 ft) AMSL
- Can be easily switched in the field
Wingtra introduces high-altitude propellers, which enable unprecedented accuracy and coverage for a professional mapping drone capturing data above 2500 m (8200 ft) above mean sea level (AMSL). Customers in South America, China, Central Europe and other regions featuring high altitudes can now map high terrain at down to 1 cm (0.4 in) GSD.
Specifically, the new high-altitude propellers and supporting software allow take-off at altitudes of up to 4800 m (15,700 ft) AMSL and flight at altitudes of up to 5000 m (16,400 ft) AMSL.
As air becomes thinner at higher altitudes, the ability for standard propellers to generate enough thrust to lift an aircraft is compromised. Their shape must change to lift through these conditions. Since it’s a VTOL drone, WingtraOne relies on this upward lift for only the take-off and landing portion of its flight. The rest of its flight time, in cruise mode, is where its advantages become obvious.
