Falcon-10 (drone)

2024: Product Announcement

At the end of August 2024, the Chinese company Ziyan introduced the Falcon-10 unmanned aerial vehicle. This helicopter-type drone can also be used to rescue drowning people.

The drone received a foldable design, thanks to which transportation is simplified. It does not take long to assemble and prepare for work: it is claimed that this process takes about five minutes. The on-board camera transmits the image in HD format in real time. A special damping device and an anti-vibration mechanism improve the quality of the video stream, compensating for jitter. To ensure security, AES-256 encryption is used when translating data.
