Spanish airline HelixNorthspecializing in the production of unmanned aircraft for the defense, security and industrial sectors, introduced the drone Kherosystem ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) of secure, national origin and full traceability, specially designed for the needs of the military market and security and state forces.
The folding quadcopter excels in its high portability and offers quick set-up, ready to deploy in less than a minute without the need to use tools to assemble its modular components or change the payload, a feature that allows for agile access and discrete critical situations. In addition, it equips the new generation systems with advanced capabilities such as autopilot, multi-satellite and multi-function module and stabilized dual camera.

The aircraft is powered by 4 electric motors that mount 12-inch composite polymer propellers, powered by a 4-cell battery, rated at 14.4 volts and rated at 7,000 milliamps, providing maximum altitude flight time. and with a payload of 400 grams 40 minutes. It can operate at a maximum range of 8000 meters with uninterrupted line of sight and reaches an altitude of 4000 meters AMSL (Above mean sea level) and a maximum speed of 15 meters per second in the horizontal plane, 3 meters per second in ascent and 2 meters per second in descent.
The use of high-strength materials in the manufacture of the fuselage and other components ensures high versatility and durability, as well as reliable performance in all types of missions and the ability to operate in adverse conditions. With environmental constraints in mind, the system can operate in light drizzle and fog, in a temperature range of -10 to 40 degrees Celsius, and in winds of up to 40 kilometers per hour.
Added a software tactical planning and monitoring, Khero it carries out missions in a highly automated manner, allowing the autopilot to make decisions reliably and independently. In addition, the platform stands out for its agile approach to development and has an open system architecture that enables the continuous incorporation of capabilities.
