Firefly
Tactical nano ISR drone under 250 g
- Total weight
- 0.235 kg
- Class
- DGCA Nano
Firefly weighs under 250 grams and fits in a backpack. It is built for covert, short range reconnaissance and can be in the air in under two minutes. It carries a daylight camera and a radiometric thermal camera over an encrypted datalink, and runs its AI tracking on the ground station so the aircraft stays inside the nano class. Figures shown are planning grade.
