HYCOPTER Hydrogen Drone
Up to 3-hour flights for large scale inspection, mapping & delivery
Made in the USA
AERIAL INSPECTIONS
HYCOPTER drones can cover 6 times more surface area than most of today’s battery drones, making large-scale inspections faster, cheaper and easier to complete.
Images collected by HYCOPTER link up to H3 Zoom.AI, an AI-assisted visual analytics platform on cloud designed to speed up the validation and reporting process of specialist inspection reports.
EMERGENCY SERVICES
Designed for quiet Long Endurance (LE) multi-rotor flight endurance, reliability and high performance, HYCOPTER is the ultimate drone solution for persistent reconnaissance and surveillance applications.
With multi-sensors payloads capabilities, HYCOPTER brings real time support solutions, optimising tactical field operations.
