INTEL® FALCON™ 8+ UAS
1. INTEL® FALCON™ 8+ UAS
Thank you very much for choosing the Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAS!
The Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV is the first-choice drone for the most challenging
professional UAV inspections and surveying operations. Small and portable with a
maximum take-off weight of only 2.8 kg, but with a payload weight of 0.8 kg, the Intel®
Falcon™ 8+ UAV can carry professional cameras like the Sony Alpha 7R, offering the full
quality of an airborne image studio. The in-house developed AscTec Trinity Control
Unit - the world's first triple redundant, fully adaptive control unit for multi-rotor
aircrafts - makes the Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV the most advanced and reliable unmanned
aerial vehicle. Thanks to the modular concept, you can spontaneously exchange the
payload at any time, and get the very best out of each project by using the most
suitable camera.
In the following text, Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) is used if the whole system
(including Intel® Cockpit™ Controller, payload, etc.) is referenced; Unmanned Aerial
