The Altus ORC4 helicopter employs an advanced and reliable fuel injected engine and management system that combines incredible performance, with useful payload capacity and good endurance.
What is unique about the Altus helicopter is the autopilot system which gives it the same docile flight characteristics of the Altus multirotor platforms. Flight control and planning are managed from the same GCS system to perform an even wider range of survey, inspection and ISR roles than the other Altus systems. With its large payload capacity, the helicopter can carry inspection or ISR, photogrammetric survey and LiDAR payloads all at once. Production models can also be uniquely fitted with the patented Altus emergency ballistic parachute for risk mitigation, payload protection and lowered insurance premiums.
