Unmanned aerial systems play an increasingly important role in military, security, policing, humanitarian and commercial operations that require rapid, flexible traverse of large areas while minimizing human burdens and risks. UAS aircraft depend on rapid and precise manipulation of flight-control surfaces as well as sensor, tracking and payload systems.​ Motion systems must operate on the available power long enough to complete each mission, and failure is never an option. Join us to learn more about how to create motion systems that are optimized for efficiency and form factor, helping your UAS design extend its flight time and range.

In this session you’ll learn how to:

  • Assess motion needs for your unmanned aerial systems
  • Select motion systems optimized for efficiency and form factor
  • Extend the flight time and range of your UAS design
