Tulip Tech has significantly increased the operational duration of the DeltaQuad Evo tactical drone through advancements in it’s battery technology.
Utilizing cutting-edge lithium metal batteries with a remarkable energy density of 450 Wh/kg, Tulip Tech has successfully enhanced the DeltaQuad Evo’s flight time to exceed 8 hours.
Flight Evaluation
In a recent extensive test, the DeltaQuad Evo achieved a flight duration of 8 hours adn 55 seconds, covering an impressive distance of 500 kilometers. This was accomplished despite challenging weather conditions, including heavy rainfall and crosswinds of up to 22 knots, with the drone finishing its mission while still retaining a meaningful battery reserve.
The latest field evaluations have further validated that Tulip Tech’s battery technology excels in real-world conditions, not just in controlled environments.
The extended flight capabilities of the DeltaQuad Evo open up new avenues for missions where range, endurance, and operational continuity are essential.Potential applications include:
- Extended missions without the need for mid-flight interruptions
- Surveillance and reconnaissance in sectors such as agriculture, infrastructure monitoring, and defense
- Scenarios where battery replacements are challenging, time-consuming, or impractical
By optimizing battery usage, drone operators can enhance mission planning, reduce downtime, and cover larger geographical areas more effectively.
