Drone with hybrid electric propulsion system to be highlighted at XPONENTIAL

Advanced Aircraft Company (AAC) will highlight the capabilities of its Hercules drone, which features a hybrid electric propulsion that is based on current NASA research and development practices. Hercules has a patent-pending design that is optimized to fly at higher airspeed than other multi-rotors and comes standard with an inexpensive camera turret. AAC will also integrated more advanced camera systems, or leave the payload bays empty, upon customer request. Additionally, Hercules is designed with a modular nose payload bay and a modular center bay on the belly of the aircraft, which makes payload integration easier. Hercules, according to AAC, can be deployed in such applications as precision agriculture, defense, infrastructure inspection, and environmental monitoring.
