(This is not a toy - handle and assemble with care) *The smartphone app is compatible with Android only* X-Fly, a new generation of smartphone-controlled bird drone with interchangeable battery. Flight assisted by gyroscopic sensors and exclusive, custom-developed algorithms. Equipped with an intelligent application and a scalable platform. Straight-line, anti-fall flight (see details below).
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS - Ultra-light: 12.2 g/compact - 380mm wingspan - Robust body structure, elastic wings, tail, legs and head to protect against impact. - Specially developed reinforced bearing micromotor (1.6 Watt) - Patented, fully symmetrical flapping wing mechanism with integrated micro speed reducer. - Precise and immediate directional control by deforming the wings for aerial stunts. - Efficient glide thanks to its very low weight-to-wing-area ratio (3.7 g/d2). Controllable glide. - Takes off and lands on the ground thanks to its legs. - Flies both inside and outside.
FLIGHT ASSISTANCE - Pilot aids: algorithms using both pilot commands and sensor measurements. - Advanced technology: sensors developed with the French army, using a 6-axis gyroscope to make it easier to steer the aircraft. - This is the first drone with flapping wings to be able to incorporate this technology, which until now has only been possible on propeller UAVs. - Anti-fall assistance: this prevents the drone from rapidly losing altitude during a turn. - Straight flight assistance: straight flight corrects the bird's heading.
CONTINUOUS FLIGHT - Autonomy: continuous flight for up to 12 minutes per charge. - The battery can be recharged in 12 minutes on its dedicated charger, which can be connected to any USB charger (smartphone charger, computer port, etc.). - Exclusive battery swap system: the battery can be swapped instantly with another battery that has already been charged, for continuous flight time.
CONTROL - Controlled by smartphone (XPlay controller optional) - the accelerator: similar to that of a car, controls the speed at which the wings flap (adjustable from 5 km/h to 20 km/h depending on the tail setting). This allows you to manage the bird's altitude, or to glide when the tail is set to the lowest setting. Thanks to its super-light weight, it glides very well. - Steering (left/right): a patented micro-mechanism imitates the movements of real birds by deforming the wings to turn. - A rudder improves steering control when gliding.
CONTROL APPLICATION - Available for Android via Bluetooth 5.2 for remote control of the bird in flight. - 150 m range from the device (for pre-Bluetooth 5.0 versions, the 150 m range may be significantly reduced). - Multi-player system (several people flying in the same place). - Firmware updates via the application. - Different control interfaces: intuitive mode/classic mode/XPlay controller mode (optional). Each mode and assistance is fully configurable and adjustable to suit each user. - Configurable LED modules and buzzer (optional)
