With an ultra-strong carbon fiber body, lightweight design, and efficient motor and propeller pairings, the
RangePro RPX8 is capable of flight times in excess of 70 minutes. The quad-arm coaxial motor octocopter
design provides redundancy that permits safe flight operations to continue with as many as four damaged or
inoperative motors.
The RangePro RPX8 is capable of taking off and landing manually or autonomously while supporting a wide
range of payloads. Highly portable and adaptable, a complete system can be transported easily and can be oper-
ated by only one person.
The RangePro RPX8 is available with a number of flight control systems, including A3 and Lightbridge 2 elec-
tronics, or a Pixhawk Blue Cube solution with a variety of ground control stations.
This document provides details on how to maintain and safely operate a RangePro RPX8-P with Pixhawk
flight control systems.
Understanding Pixhawk and Ardupilot Open Source Autopilot Systems
The Pixhawk and Ardupilot open standards software support a wide range of aircraft configurations and have
hundreds of parameters accessible to control flight characteristics, performance, and control of on-board sen-
sors and systems. Experienced RangePro users are able to tweak their aircraft configurations to meet individual
operational requirements and preferences.
