UAVOS Extends Unmanned Applications

UAVOS recently announced that it has unveiled its converted Robinson manned helicopter into unmanned aircraft R-22 as a cargo and farthest range delivery drone. It features a payload capacity of 180 kilograms or 400 pounds and a travel distance of up to 1020 km. 
 
R-22 unmanned helicopter is designed for both cargo delivery and humanitarian/disaster relief applications. Failure to deliver vital equipment under austere operating conditions and timelines can incur substantial fiscal costs, making Robinson’s all-weather capabilities particularly valuable. This also opens up new possibilities for safely and efficiently transporting goods in a variety of industries. Another is the disaster relief mission where R-22 can bring food, fuel, water, supplies, medicine, communications and even electrical power to areas that are hard-hit by natural or man-made disasters. 
 
The advantages of R-22 unmanned helicopter include the fact that thanks to its long endurance capability (6 hours), and ability to operate in harsh weather conditions, in both land and maritime environments, it is a perfect solution for delivery missions.
It can also operate in high winds, during weather-related disasters, and night operations.
 
Furthermore, it can cargo drop at a specified location. R-22 can be used in numerous missions and scenarios requiring cargo delivery such as providing lifesaving measures (communication device, a bottle of water, floating device, etc.) in search and rescue (S&R) missions, dropping of essential material such as drugs in an epidemic situation, etc.
