ScanLift Orbit UAS

The ScanLift Orbit is a purpose-built hybrid-electric UAV designed for long endurance, heavy-lift capability, and rugged reliability. Tested up to 8,000 ft with full payload in some of the world’s harshest environments—from the snow-capped mountains of Canada to the deserts of Australia—the Orbit provides operators with a versatile and powerful platform for industrial, surveying, and research applications. Its modular design, redundant systems, and fully autonomous flight capabilities make it ideal for demanding missions while ensuring secure data management.

Features

• 3+ Hours Flight Time – 1.5+ hours with 7 kg (15.4 lbs) payloads; longer flight times improve productivity and mission efficiency.

• Heavy Lift Capacity – Supports up to 10 kg (22 lbs) payloads, enabling diverse mission-specific payload options.

• Push Button Electric Start – Simplified start for the iHE7 hybrid generator engine.

• Redundancy – Electric motor redundancy, petrol engine backup with 5-min reserve battery, optional parachute, and battery power supply redundancies.

• Ground Control System – Intuitive interface with long-range communication and secure, encrypted data link.

• Modular Design – Interchangeable arms and motors for quick field maintenance (“plug-n-fly”).

• Powerful EFI Generator – iHE7 hybrid-electric generator provides reliable and consistent power output.

• Data Security – Sovereign data remains localized with no auto-updates; hardware pairing by permission only.

• Full Autonomous Flight – Jupiter+ autopilot flight controller with proprietary source code ensures complete autonomy.

• Payload Dampening System – Minimizes vibrations to maintain high-quality data capture.

• Quick Connect Mount – Allows rapid swapping of payloads in the field.

• Ease of Use – Suitable for beginners and experienced pilots; focus on data collection rather than complex operations.

Optional Features

• ADS-B – Long-range, lightweight module enabling BVLOS flights, DAA, and Remote ID readiness.

• Ground Control Station Dual Handover – Dual GCS support for large corridor mapping; customizable modems and control integration.

• First Person View Camera – Optional AV/HDMI FPV camera for secondary ground screen monitoring.

• Terrain Laser Sensor – Allows terrain-following and accurate height telemetry during flight.

• Radar – Height detection over wet surfaces where LiDAR is not applicable.

• Parachute – Automatic deployment in abnormal flight conditions; non-ballistic and airline transportable.

• Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) – Seamless integration with INF RTK base stations for high-precision navigation and geologging.

• Optional Payload Voltage – 5V, 7V, 12V, 24V for powering payloads directly from main batteries.
