Description

Xer Technologies X8 | Powerful and Versatile Heavy Duty Hybrid Electric Drone

Xer X8 is a heavy duty hybrid-electric UAS that can be launched in minutes and flown for 2.5 hours with a 3 kg (6.6 lbs) payload. Offering Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) capabilities, the X8 can carry payloads of up to 7 kg (15.4 lbs) and performs exceptionally well even in adverse weather conditions and strong winds. The Xer X8 is mission-ready for the most demanding jobs such as Inspection, Public Safety, and Search & Rescue.

Mission-Ready

The X8 can be equipped to meet the most demanding missions, boasting superior flight time and payload capacity compared to conventional UAVs. It operates at a fraction of the cost and carbon footprint of helicopters or manned aircraft. Additionally, the X8 can be flown in both the EASA “Open” and “Specific” categories.

2.5 Hour Flight Time

The X8 offers unbeatable flight time compared to conventional battery-powered drones. Its powerful hybrid engine supports demanding missions, providing 2.5 hours of flight time with a 3 kg (6.6 lbs) payload.

Wind and Weather Resilient

The heavy-duty construction of the X8 ensures your team can execute missions in any weather. The X8 performs reliably in winds up to 35 knots, adverse weather conditions, temperatures as low as -20°C (-4 F).

A Customizable Platform

Designed to carry various sensors and multiple heavy payloads with specialized functions, the X8 can adapt to a wide range of missions. Its versatile design ensures it meets the demands of any operation.

Xer Advantages

  • Enhanced Safety:  Xer's twin-engine system includes a backup battery, allowing it to land safely on backup power. This minimizes the risk of damaging expensive payloads and camera systems.
  • Reduce Emissions:  Compared to using helicopters, Xer Drones can drastically reduce CO2 emissions. The hybrid engine is fuel-effective and powerful.
  • Reduce Costs:  Xer drones offer significant cost savings for many common use cases since they can replace helicopters and other crewed vehicles.
  • Custom Sensors:  Xer can fit almost any sensor, including high definition cameras, multispectral sensors, LiDAR, IR sensor, Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), sonars etc.
  • Custom Solutions:  Xer UAS are designed to be customizable to meet the applications your use case needs. Use satellite navigation? Extra flight range? High altitude flights? The Xer is flexible enough to meet any use case.
