Ascent Spirit - The Ideal Platform for Mission Critical Operations
With nearly ten pounds available for batteries and payloads, Spirit sets the new standard for performance in its weight class. The highly streamlined airframe has a top speed of over 60 miles per hour and can operate in winds that would ground other UAVs. Enterprise level operations require solutions that are practical in the field.
Compact & Modular
Spirit is compact and modular to support a growing ecosystem of easily swappable payloads and technology upgrades so it’s easy to bring what’s needed, where it’s needed, when it’s needed. No more high-stakes tradeoffs that compromise capability against bulky, heavy equipment. Setup is quick and easy, allowing for takeoff from any type of terrain.
Rugged & All Weather
Spirit is protected against contamination and can reliably operate in adverse weather conditions, including heavy rain, sleet, sand and snow, and can operate in winds that would ground other UAVs.
Efficient & High-Performance
Spirit sets the new standard for performance in its weight class with nearly 10 lbs. available for batteries and payloads. The highly streamlined airframe has a top speed of over 60mph to go farther, faster, longer, and carry more.
Versatile & Adaptable
Spirit’s adaptable design avails entirely new deployment methods and allows operators to easily incorporate a growing ecosystem of swappable payloads and software. Top to bottom quick-attach fittings payloads and batteries that can be mounted or stacked on either point modules lock and unlock with a simple twist generous CG envelope accommodates a wide range of configurations.
