EQUIPMENT RENTALS
Hex UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle)
The Mastermind Studios Hex unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) helicopter platform is a miniature aircraft for commercial and industrial aerial HD digital video and still photography.
The unique custom built design utilizes horizontal rotor blades and allows the helicopter to hover efficiently and maneuver rapidly using differential thrust.
Efficient electric motors allow it to carry heavier and more advanced payloads while providing safety features and superior image stabilization.
It is whisper quiet and runs on direct drive electric brushless motors. Even in winds up to 35 mph this helicopter is very stable and safe.
It uses geo-location positioning and target tracking with eleven stabilization sensors and six rotors to help with easy flight and make vibration a non-issue.
Multiple fail-safes are built in to mitigate any risk to people or property.
A real-time video down-link feed allows images and video to be seen by the ground crew at the base station during flight while the pilot controls the aircraft. Remote control pan, tilt, and zoom allow your professionally produced photos and HD video to be at the location and angle you want every time.
