Description
Astero is a fixed-wing drone that offers large-area surveys, with up to 3,5 hours flight time. With an extraordinary durability Astero can withstand approx. 50G impact on landing. The Astero is equipped with a changeable payload integration, which allows multiple possibilities for optional payload.

Once the aircraft is hand-launched, the Astero automatically flies its predefined mission and lands again at a predefined landing point. Manual control is also possible during the flight.
