Fully runway independent. Point takeoff and landing. No equipment required.
FVR Hybrid Quadrotor™ (HQ) Technology
With FVR, operators can be confident that dynamic mission requirements will drive platform capabilities, not the inverse. Don’t compromise for anything less.
> Hybrid Quadrotor™ (HQ) Technology.
> Fully runway independent. Point takeoff and landing.
No equipment required.
> Proven ability to operate from land or sea.
> Universal mounting interface accommodates various
customer payloads.
> 2 person operations team.
> 1 hour time to deploy from box to launch.
> Small Mobile Ground Control Station (Windows tablet
or laptop with Datalink).
CG Agility
FVR-90 can accept a wide array of payloads with varying weights without the need to add extra ballast for balance. This flexibility allows the individual end user the ability to quickly reconfigure the aircraft for the specific mission and add more capability as payloads are developed/integrated.
multi-mission
Removable multi-purpose payload bay (nose). The removable payload bay carry -22 lbs of payload with a volume of 1000 cu in while providing 28 VDC /300 W power. There are four additional payload locations on the vehicle. At the boom hard points, 5 lbs can be hung from each boom.
Latest Feature code
L3Harris FVR-90 is utilizing the latest Hybrid Quadrotor Feature Code version 3.X.X which includes new capabilities not found in previous releases and not available to those legacy aircraft. HQ 3.0 includes Maritime Moving Baseline technology to enable shipboard vertical takeoff and landing from a moving vessel. Other advanced features being developed in feature code 3.X.X include: Smart throttle / Quiet Cruise, advanced integrated diagnostics for Electronic Speed Control (ESC), Servos and Engine, support for M-Code GPS, support for time-of-flight GPS denied navigation and terminal functionality.
