Based on the MoD Grand Challenge 2008\u00a0entry we have spent the last\u00a0few years developing, refining\u00a0and protecting the new HALO Co-Axial Tri-Rotor Unmanned Aerial System for applications in Defence, Security and the Civilian markets.<\/p>\n

HALO was the highest scoring system in the recent DARPA UAVForge Challenge.<\/p>\n

This unique VTOL aircraft has a maximum take-off mass (MTOM) of 2.5 kg, endurance of 32 min\u00a0and with\u00a0six rotors\u00a0it can develop a thrust of approximately 50 N. Due to its co-axial configuration and detachable arms and legs,\u00a0it is very compact and easy to transport, making it an ideal platform for short reconaissance missions and local ISTAR up to 5-7 km.<\/p>\n
