Heavylift Hexacopter

More Payload Capacity

The larger payload capacity of up to 12kg is possible on a small footprint thanks to a powerful drivetrain and every carbon fibre parts being designed as lightweight and robust as possible. Metal CNC machined parts are made of aerospace grade aluminium and also optimised, allowing for more features and sensors to be added, as needed for specific operational needs and as legislation evolves.

Increased Safety

With 3 sets of IMU sensors, 2 GPS modules, redundant six motor set-up, high thrust drivetrain and physically and digitally conspicuous sensor options, the aircraft has been intelligently engineered for more safety, redundancy and peace of mind. We can also integrate various parachutes as extra safety feature.

Optimised Performance

Our proven, modular designed, precision engineered carbon fibre airframe has been refined, with parts carefully selected  and tested for maximum efficiency and performance even in harsh conditions. The aircraft can be relied upon in wide operational conditions, with great resistance to strong wind and rain  and can be flown for up to 84 minutes on GPS or manually, even in GNSS denied environment.

Clogworks Dark Matter hX Gen2

Proven Autopilot

Increased stability and wider scope

for different payloads & sensors

Our Dark Matter aircraft are all Ardupilot based, harnessing the potential of an open source platform

being developed by a global community.

GCS Options

Greater flexibility for an even

wider range of applications

Our controller options tend to be android based, and offer radio frequency redundancy and a radio line of sight communication of up to 40km.

Customer Focus and Support

Quick Deployment

The aircraft are quick to deploy thanks to their quick assembly design, with no tool required, and can be transported easily.

The foldable propellers reduce the footprint for transport.

The fully detachable components still allow for easy and quick service and maintenance.

VLOS/BVLOS Ready

Our aircraft dimensions allows for the full 500m VLOS operation and is physically conspicuous with its navigation lights, green flashing light and optional beacon light.

It also can carry Remote-ID, as needed, and we offer ADS-B options. Our aircraft are used in the UK and abroad in BVLOS operations.

RTK Ready

All Dark Matter Gen3 aircraft are RTK ready to help our pilots achieve even greater levels of accuracy for photogrammetry and LiDAR missions. The platform offers two integrated GPS/RTK ready module for redundancy.
