Introducing Vesper: The Next-Gen American-Made Quadcopter
Vesper stands out as a cutting-edge quadcopter UAS (unmanned aerial system) crafted in the USA, adhering too NDAA regulations. This drone is engineered to deliver swift and dependable aerial reconnaissance capabilities, excelling in both daylight and nighttime operations, even in the most demanding environments. Its adaptable design includes two rotor configurations: a shrouded rotor for enhanced safety during indoor flights or over populated areas, and a reconnaissance rotor that optimizes speed, endurance, and stealth.
Advanced Features for Critical Missions
This unmanned aircraft is equipped with a field-swappable stabilized gimbal that houses dual 4K electro-optical sensors alongside a thermal imaging system. This makes Vesper an ideal choice for mission-critical ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) tasks, as well as various civilian uses such as infrastructure inspections. The entire setup is conveniently housed in a compact, IP67-rated field case, weighing only 1 kg, and can be assembled and ready for flight in less than 90 seconds.
Security and Compliance for Sensitive Operations
Vesper is specifically designed to cater to the requirements of sensitive military and governmental operations. It incorporates AES-256 encryption for all communications and data storage, along with a tamper-resistant construction to ensure the integrity of its operations.
