Dark Matter® hX at 29 Palms USMC Training Site

The Dark Matter® hX and qD Gen 3 are the new 2025 versions of our proven aircraft. So, what's new? On the exterior, our striking design bares a lot of resemblance to the first generation. We have also kept the modular aspects, providing better flexibility and future-proofing for our customers. But don't let that fool you in to thinking that's all we have changed. Benefitting of years of customers feedback and continuous improvement as well as the industry development in avionics, sensors and batteries, these systems are better than ever! The payload capacity is improved further thanks to our new bespoke drivetrain and stronger chassis. These aircraft offer up to 84 minutes flight time each. The aircraft are designed for quick deployment; assembly can be conducted in a couple of minutes in the field without the need of a single tool. We can integrate gimballed EO, IR or dual sensor cameras to replace our previously fixed FPV camera, leaving the payload bay free for further sensors. The platforms are compatible with a wide range of payloads from partners we have been working with over the years and new ones. The systems can be configured with various tethers, cameras, Lidars or emergency response equipment, to name but a few.  These aircraft are therefore capable of conducting many aerial applications.

The Dark Matter® Star is a foldable drone that has been designed specifically for intelligence gathering purposes. Its acronym stands for: - Surveillance - Tactical - Aerial - Reconnaissance The aircraft is foldable for quick deployment and can integrate EO, IR or dual sensor cameras as standard. It boasts an AI module too to help the operator continuously monitor the video feed, as required.
