eBee X

The eBee X is a fixed-wing drone developed by senseFly, a leading manufacturer of professional mapping and surveying drones. The eBee X is designed for aerial mapping, surveying, and inspection applications, offering advanced capabilities and versatility. Here are some key features and information about the eBee X:

1. Fixed-Wing Design: The eBee X features a fixed-wing design, allowing it to achieve longer flight times and cover larger areas compared to multirotor drones. Its aerodynamic shape and efficient propulsion system enable stable and efficient flight, even in windy conditions.

2. Mapping and Surveying Capabilities: The eBee X is primarily used for aerial mapping and surveying purposes. It is equipped with high-resolution cameras, such as the senseFly S.O.D.A. (Sensor Optimized for Drone Applications), which captures high-quality imagery for mapping and 3D modeling. The drone's advanced onboard sensors and software enable precise georeferencing and accurate data collection.

3. Multiple Payload Options: One of the key features of the eBee X is its ability to carry different payloads based on specific application requirements. In addition to the senseFly S.O.D.A. camera, it can be equipped with additional sensors, such as thermal cameras or multispectral sensors, allowing for a wide range of applications, including agriculture, environmental monitoring, infrastructure inspection, and more.

4. Endurance and Coverage: The eBee X is known for its long flight endurance, capable of covering large areas in a single flight. It can fly for up to 90 minutes on a single battery charge, depending on the payload and flight conditions. This extended flight time, combined with its efficient flight planning capabilities, enables the drone to efficiently cover large survey areas and collect data with high spatial resolution.

5. Professional Flight Planning Software: The eBee X is supported by senseFly's professional flight planning software called eMotion. This software allows users to plan missions, define flight paths, and specify image capture settings. It also provides real-time flight monitoring and control, as well as post-flight data processing and analysis.

6. User-Friendly Operation: The eBee X is designed to be user-friendly, making it accessible to both experienced and novice drone operators. It offers easy launching and autonomous landing capabilities, as well as automated flight control during the mission. The drone's flight operations can be controlled through a dedicated remote controller or via a computer-based ground control station.

The eBee X is widely used in various industries, including agriculture, construction, mining, surveying, and environmental monitoring. Its versatile payload options, long flight endurance, and reliable performance make it a popular choice for professionals seeking efficient and accurate data collection from above.
