Not Even a Blizzard Can Stop FreeBird One!

 1-Mile Autonomous Flight During Snowstorm

  • FreeBird One can run automated missions whenever you need it to.

  • In this clip, FreeBird One executes a 1-mile loop autonomously after a manual takeoff.

  • FreeBird One climbs to 325 feet and then flies to a series of waypoints at 22 MPH.

  • Despite snow and 15-25MPH winds, FreeBird One held its altitude to within 3 feet of its target and speed to within 2MPH of its target throughout the flight.

  • After passing through all of the waypoints, FreeBird One flew back to its launch position and descended to the ground on its own.

  • FreeBird One remained within line-of-sight the entire time, and despite the snow and distance (up to 3,000 feet away and 325 feet high, the bright LED navigation lights and large frame profile made FreeBird One easily visible.

FreeBird One in the Rain...No Problem!

​

  • FreeBird One is completely weatherproof. Flying a DJI Phantom or Inspire in rain or snow will void the warranty. What most people don't know if that there are indicators inside those units that show servicers whether water was the cause of a malfunction.

  • People routinely take chances in weather conditions that their drones are not rated for, but conditions that they should be able to operate in.

  • FreeBird One raises those thresholds, making it operable whenever needed in any season, almost any conditions, and almost anywhere in the world.

Stable Performance in Winds up to 50MPH 

​

This video gives a good perspective of FreeBird One's ability to hold a position in strong winds because of its close proximity to the ground.

​

Peak gusts were around 40 MPH during this flight.
