Impressive Performance

The Savant sUAS is a small electric powered fixed-wing aircraft. With an interchangeable payload system, different sensor packages are quickly accommodated.  Flight duration is up to 2 hours (depending on configuration) allowing long distance and large area surveys.

The Savant takes flight quickly via a mobile launcher and lands on Kevlar belly pads, in a net, or by parachute.  Flight planning and piloting is done by setting way-points and flight parameters using a Panasonic ToughBook Tablet or laptop. Sensor packages optimized for crop health, water status, irrigation coverage, livestock health, or waste water run-off detection are available as standards.
