Longbow

Powerful, next-generation system, purpose-built for military operations in the most challenging and contested electronic warfare environments.

Tandem Rotor

Tandem rotor design stands out for its exceptional performance capabilities, drawing inspiration from the renowned CH-47 Chinook helicopter. Key benefits include:

Exceptional Stability: Equipped with dual rotors that operate in sync, Avidrone’s systems demonstrate outstanding stability. This feature enables them to navigate smoothly through turbulent weather and challenging terrains, offering superior control.

Superior Lifting Capacity: The unique tandem rotor configuration grants Longbow an unparalleled ability to lift heavy payloads. This capability is particularly valuable in logistics operations, where transporting significant loads is essential.

Enhanced Cargo Handling: Unlike single or multi-rotor configurations, the design includes a long, linear cargo bay. This layout shifts the centre of gravity, accommodating oversized items more efficiently and broadening the scope of cargo transportation solutions.

Optimized High-Altitude Performance: Tandem rotors excel in high-altitude conditions, providing efficient lift crucial for operations in mountainous or otherwise elevated areas. This advantage allows Avidrone’s fleet to extend its operational capabilities to challenging environments.

Minimized Turbulence Risks: The design incorporates counter-rotating rotors that counteract torque effects, substantially mitigating turbulence risk. This reduction in turbulence susceptibility is particularly beneficial during hover or low-speed maneuvers, significantly enhancing flight safety during the most critical phases.
