Build, Create, and Develop to Modify Develop Air
Expanding Develop Air
Once familiar with
fl
ying Develop Air and an understanding of its internal electronics is
achieved, the operator can expand the capabilities of Develop Air. Rated to continuously
carry external payloads of up to 3lbs, Develop Air is outfitted with swappable side plates
and a quick release project rail to connect and mount electromechanical payloads.
Quick Release Rail System
Operators can conveniently and securely mount payloads underneath Develop Air using
the quick release rail system. Payloads are only limited by the operator’s imagination to
create a payload, the size so it fits between the landing gear, and 3lb carrying capacity.
Replacing Parts
iVue Robotics has made the following replaceable parts available for purchase to make
Develop Air the ultimate ready to
fl
y and modify drone with ease of repair in mind:
