Airbrain A3 AUTOPILOT for Fixed-Wing and VTOL | GCS with embedded flight simulator

Overview of Airbrain A3 AUTOPILOT

The A-series Airbrain Autopilot is expertly engineered for fixed-wing unmanned aircraft, supporting hand-launch, runway takeoff, and VTOL capabilities. Paired with a user-friendly ground station featuring an embedded simulator, it allows users to master operations quickly without formal training. The autopilot employs an adaptive sensor calibration algorithm, removing the need for manual calibration. Its redundant sensor design ensures robust safety protection mechanisms. This versatile system is ideal for applications in security, inspection, and aerial surveying.

User-friendly Mission Planning

The ground station software features a clean, intuitive interface that ensures ease of use, even for beginners. With just a few simple mission parameters, the system can intelligently generate diverse mission plans tailored to the terrain, meeting a wide array of application requirements effortlessly.

Embedded Simulation Flight

The ground station is equipped with an integrated simulation system, removing the necessity for extra hardware. Users can simulate the complete drone operation process, including takeoff, landing, mission execution, and emergency procedures, all at zero cost. This feature greatly lowers training expenses while enhancing training efficiency.

Comprehensive Safety Mechanisms

The system incorporates triple-redundant IMUs and dual GPS modules, ensuring robust and reliable performance. It also supports GNSS dual-antenna configuration for accurate heading, immune to compass interference. Additionally, automatic altitude checks for flight routes further enhance safety.

No Manual Sensor Calibration Required

With advanced adaptive sensor calibration algorithms, all sensors, including airspeed sensors, IMUs, and barometers, automatically adjust without requiring user calibration. These sensors remain unaffected by environmental factors like temperature changes, minimizing human error and streamlining operational procedures.

Airbrain Autopilot – Multi-Area Mission Planning

For regions with substantial elevation variations, the system enables multi-area mission planning within a single flight. This allows for segmented data collection based on distinct elevation reference planes, effectively meeting indoor and complex terrain requirements.

Dynamic Target Tracking Flight

Airbrain Autopilot offers dynamic tracking capabilities tailored to the speed of moving targets. When the target remains stationary, the aircraft hovers above it. For slow-moving targets, the system guides the aircraft to follow in a circular orbit. When the target accelerates, the aircraft seamlessly switches to straight-line tracking to maintain an accurate pursuit.
