Trichon™ is a hybrid VTOL tricopter for extended short-range reconnaissance and large-area mapping. The aircraft combines vertical takeoff and landing with fixed-wing cruise, utilizing a 150 cm wingspan and accommodating payloads up to 350 g. EO/IR, mapping and trainer configurations provide options for operational missions and flight training.
Payload options include the Ocellus-2CP EO/IR system with mechanical and electronic image stabilization, and a three-camera mapping array. The common ground control and mission planning environment allows operators to change flight modes, manage sensors and share real-time video and aircraft data.
Trichon™ is designed for 60–90 minutes of mission endurance with a payload and an 11–15 km video communications range. Its rugged design includes IP54 ingress protection and a 17 m/s wind rating.
