Walkera Voyager 3 iUAS - Futuristic APM Quadcopter

Posted by noeL on January 13, 2015 at 11:30pm

According to iUASinc.com, the Voyager 3 will be APM driven, it will be GPS and GLONASS dual-navigation system with a long awaited 4K camera for cinematic filming.

The gimbal is detachable with an unrestricted 360°view below. You can fly with 2 operators, a pilot and camera man controlling the gimbal. It will carry a whopping 8s 29.6V LiPo battery to produce 20 minutes of flight time.

Due to be out next month, at the rate it is going it will be on sale at most retails before the Inspire 1, starting price is going to be under $2000. The 4k camera and 8s battery/charger probably takes up a bulk of the cost.

Since it uses the popular Devo F12E 12 channel radio, you can buy it BNF if you already have a Devention professional radio.

Question: Is there any good reason that makes better having COG low under props plane instaid of at same height or much upper? Thanks

Jiro, I agree. Retracting the camera and landing gear makes much more sense than moving the arms.

The Voyager in the shots were clearly tracked in. So walkera couldn't risk shooting the video with the actor, or is it just vaporware?
