The ATLAS 204 A20 quadcopter UAS is Altus LSA’s smallest drone platform, offering a payload capacity of 1 kg, MTOW of 5 kg and a mission endurance of up to 55 minutes. Designed to be rapidly deployable with a low logistical footprint, it can be operated by a single user and airborne within 2 minutes.
With a reconfigurable payload hub, it can be equipped to undertake a wide range of missions including military ISR, security surveillance, industrial monitoring, and precision agriculture.
The ATLAS 204 A20 and its payload have been specially designed and developed according to the EN 60259 standard, with IP55-rated protection for the mechanics, electronics and optics instruments for operation in harsh environmental conditions.
The N22 is the larger version of the ATLAS 204 platform, providing a payload capacity of 5 kg and extended mission endurance of more than 60 minutes. The aircraft features a convenient foldable design and can be easily carried in a backpack.
The versatile UAS can be equipped with a variety of payloads and equipment, including an EO/IR gimbal with laser rangefinder, optical gas sensors, high-powered spotlights, parachute safety systems, and cargo release mechanisms. As with all Altus UAS, it has been precision-engineered with a rugged design and offers AES- 128 or 256 encrypted communications.
The ATLAS 4 is an advanced UAS designed to provide capabilities that outmatch those of standard quadcopter platforms. With a 4-5 kg payload capacity and MTOW 14 kg it is ideal for military ISR, industrial monitoring, and light cargo delivery. The platform offers medium to long-range control with a flight autonomy of up to 60 minutes.
The aircraft is designed to IP43 ingress protection standards, and can be optionally upgraded to IP55. It can withstand winds of up to 16 m/s (Beaufort 7) and is equipped with AES- 128 and 256 encrypted communications.
The ATLAS 8 is an electric octocopter platform designed for critical cargo transport and commercial last-mile delivery, featuring an impressive payload capacity of 60 kg. The modular payload bay allows it to carry a variety of goods, including medical supplies, spare parts and industrial equipment, and also enables it to be fitted with missiles and weapons systems to support military strike missions.
The redundancy and reliability offered by the eight extremely powerful motors, along with its robust design and sophisticated modular payload bay, make ATLAS 8 a platform with unlimited potential. The on-board industry-leading advanced control systems allow precise mid-air deployment of passive or active cargo, making it a perfect candidate for a wide range of weapon systems and resupply operations.
Currently under development, the Hybrid variant of the ATLAS 8 octocopter platform utilizes a combined battery and internal combustion engine propulsion system to enable longer endurance of up to 3 hours and transportation of heavy loads of up to 100 kg.
EDOMON is an advanced VTOL fixed-wing UAS designed to provide long-range and wide-area ISR capabilities for defense, security and law enforcement.
Able to stay airborne for 7 to 10 hours and to cover up to 100 km in a single flight, it can be equipped with a range of useful payloads including EO/IR gimbals, IMSI catchers, and AIS receivers.
The aircraft combines the maneuverability of VTOL platforms with the range and efficiency of fixed-wing flight, and utilizes a hybrid propulsion system consisting of a gasoline engine with built-in generator for continuous in-flight battery charging.
The ALTUS Drone Hangar is an all-in-one solution for the storage, maintenance and autonomous operation of multirotor UAVs. It allows the drone to take off, land and return without human intervention, and also provides recharging capabilities to ensure constant readiness. Operators can monitor the system remotely to adjust flight plans and mission parameters as required.
The rugged theft-proof enclosure is IP67-rated and built to withstand corrosion in marine environments. It also incorporates an integrated air-conditioning system, a weather station, and an internal observation camera, and allows communication via RF, Ethernet and 4G/5G cellular.
The ALTUS Drone Hangar is ideal for a variety of autonomous drone operations, including real-time security patrolling and reconnaissance, maritime inspection, fire monitoring, and cargo delivery.
