Prototype Development of a long range Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems
EF 2019-20 · 2019-11-01
Résumé
Following extensive in-field testing and commercial traction with early adopters in 2019, Pegasus is translating this data into the design of a new long range Remotely Piloted Aircraft System.
This new design, the "Hyperion", will bridge the capability gap in capability between defense and consumer-grade drone technology. Designed to integrate active Detect And Avoid technology, Hyperion will be able to carry up to 44lbs of payload with an endurance of up to 16 hours within an operational radius of 800km.
Advanced communications equipment onboard will ensure secure telemetry and data link connectivity and also enable the system to function as an airborne RF repeater for ground personnel radio and data communications.

Description
Following extensive in-field testing and commercial traction with early adopters in 2019, Pegasus is translating this data into the design of a new long range Remotely Piloted Aircraft System.
This new design, the "Hyperion", will bridge the capability gap in capability between defense and consumer-grade drone technology.

Description (French)
Après des essais sur le terrain approfondis et une traction commerciale auprès des premiers adopteurs en 2019, Pegasus traduit ces données dans la conception d'un nouveau système d'aéronefs télépilotés à longue portée. Cette nouvelle conception, le « Hyperion », comblera l'écart de capacité entre la technologie des drones de défense et celle des drones grand public. Conçu pour intégrer la technologie active Detect And Avoid, Hyperion pourra transporter jusqu'à 44 lb de charge utile avec une autonomie de 16 heures dans un rayon d'action de 800 km. L'équipement de communications de pointe à bord assurera une connectivité sécurisée de télémétrie et de liaison de données et permettra également au système de fonctionner comme répéteur RF aéroporté pour les radiocommunications terrestres du personnel et les communications des données.
