Yamaha Motor Has Developed New Drones FAZER R G2
OREANDA-NEWS. Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. (Tokyo: 7272) announced today that it has developed a new automated navigation unmanned aircraft (commonly known as "drones"), the FAZER R G2, a high-end model for the industrial sector. Rental and service provision of these drones for industrial purposes such as measurement, surveying, surveillance, photography, and transport will begin from April 2017.
The FAZER R G2 is an industrial drone for automated flight to uninhabited areas out of visual range, and delivers excellent performance through its maximum payload of 35kg, maximum altitude of 2,800m, and cruising range of 90km.
The FAZER R G2 is also being exhibited at the Japan International Aerospace Exhibition 2016 being held at Tokyo Big Sightfrom Wed. October 12 to Sat. 15.Yamaha Motor has been involved in a wide range of measurement, surveying, surveillance, and photography operations since 2006 using the RMAX G1 automated navigation industrial-use unmanned helicopter. Takeoff and landing of automated navigation unmanned helicopters is conducted by an operator using a remote control. After takeoff, the aircraft can fly to areas including those out of visual range using a pre-programed route, leading to its use in a broad range of applications - such as volcanic surveying and radiation measurement - for which it has been evaluated very highly.
The new FAZER R G2 has been developed building on the law revision in 2014 (takeoff weight limit increased from 100kg to 150kg), offering significant increases in payload capacity, operating altitude, and flight time over the previous model.Specifically, this new model is based on the FAZER R launched in 2016, adding new features such as automated flight control systems, a 12-liter fuel tank, and attachments for mounting photography and measurement devices. By combining these new features while retaining the control systems proven in the RMAX G1, the field of operation has been expanded. Moreover, the permitted payload being increased from 10kg to 35kg and the operating altitude being increased from 1,000m to 2,800m enables surveying of previously-unreachable high-altitude volcanic mountains such as Mount Asama, Mount Tokachi, Mount Kusatsu-Shirane, and Mount Aso.
Finally, through the fitting of a satellite-capable transmitter-receiver, the cruising range has been expanded to 90km (12-liter fuel), compared to 3km for the previous model, the RMAX G1.
