xCraft’s Shadow is an unmanned aerial system (UAS) capable of 24hr tethered flight at an altitude of 100ft. The UAS integrates seamlessly with a secure Rajant mesh communication network as a relay node and offers real time streaming HD video, making it a valuable asset for any situation requiring secure pop-up surveillance and/or communication. Set up is as easy as plugging in the 240VAC tether and sending the launch command through the controller. Pre-loaded flight stabilization software keeps the UAS hovering above the launch point at a fixed altitude, adjusting for wind (up to 30 knots or 34 mph) and light rain. When the mission is complete a simple “land” command transmitted through the controller returns the UAS to the ground where it can be unplugged, packed and ready for transport in minutes. The system includes an emergency backup power system that will safely return the UAS to the ground in the event of a primary power system failure.
