Spirit Coaxial Rotor VTOL UAS

Building on its status as a BLUE UAS Cleared system, the SPIRIT’s all-weather core platform has been added to the Defense Innovation Unit’s (DIU) Blue UAS Framework as a cleared component. As the flagship platform of the world’s only family of aircraft-grade coaxial UAVs, SPIRIT features a modular, open-architecture design that allows rapid deployment of new software and payloads to meet mission-critical requirements. Whether your mission is to inspect, detect, measure, or transport, SPIRIT provides a high-performance coaxial UAV solution when downtime is not an option.

Mission-Critical Platform
SPIRIT is designed for critical operations, offering:

• Payload Flexibility: Two identical attach points enable quick plug-and-play module configuration, supporting nearly 10 pounds of payload or additional batteries for extended flight times.

• Future-Proof Design: Purpose-built to mitigate obsolescence, SPIRIT provides a rugged, aircraft-grade foundation aligned with DoD acquisition requirements. Dual status as a Blue UAS Cleared component and complete system ensures streamlined acquisition, integration flexibility, and readiness for evolving operational needs.

• Adaptability:

  1. Top and bottom quick-attach fittings

  2. Payloads and batteries can be mounted or stacked as needed

  3. Modules lock/unlock with a simple twist

  4. Generous CG envelope for diverse configurations

Payload Development Kit
A free technical documentation package and CAD files are available for custom payload development. A variety of EO/IR sensors are available now, with more modules coming soon.
