The Black Widow is one of our most popular designs and is ideal for aerial photography, structural inspection, surveying, and other medium lift tasks wher high levels of reliability and a clear sensor view are important.The co axial X8 configuration gives good performance in wind, and plenty of lift for carrying medium to heavy loads, whilst also offering very good redundancy against failure. The frame is tough and solid, and includes our tool less quick fold mechanism for ease of transportation and storage. A well proven anti vibration system and standard payload mounting rails are available, as well as the option for wide spaced retractable landing gear giving plenty of room for a centrally mounted gimbals
This is a fast and highly manoeuvrable aircraft, that offers great stability and good resistance to wind. The use of Z arms gives great 360 degree view for the camera without getting props in the shot, ideal for both aerial photography and structural inspection wher a clear all round view from the camera is required.
The Black Widow is now available in both X8 and Hex configurations. It can supplied as a frame for the self builder or as a Ready to Fly aircraft. As with all our ‘standard’ airframes the Black Widow can be adapted or customised as appropriate for a range of applications and requirements.
