The Russian unmanned tiltrotor VETER was shown to the public at the new exhibition 'What is Design?', organized by the Moscow Design Museum, Tretyakov State Gallery and RDDM 'Movement of the Firsts'. The domestic development is used for fighting poachers, mapping, aerial photography and crop monitoring.
The designers of the tiltrotor from 'SmirnovDesign' note that the product prototype was assembled from carbon. On board are a battery, engines, electronics. In the front part, in the center of a spherical transparent dome, a camera for aerial photography is installed. If the tiltrotor needs an emergency landing, it will activate a parachute.
The design and prototype were commissioned by the company 'Technowind' - a participant in the 'Skolkovo' fund. According to the manufacturers, two modifications of the tiltrotor are planned: for transporting loads up to 10 kg and for aerial photography.
The cargo version weighing 30 kg will be able to fly from 300 to 1000 km with a load at a speed of up to 250 km/h.
The aerial monitoring version weighs only 7 kg and can fly up to 200 km. It can reach speeds up to 200 km/h.
