Hazardous Weather-Ready Drones

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

ThunderFly's 'TF-G1' Unmanned Drone can Maintain Flight in Weather

— December 11, 2023 — Business
ThunderFly is a Czech company that makes flying machines that can handle harsh weather; it recently released the TF-G1, a drone that looks like a mini helicopter and runs on electricity. The TF-G1 can carry up to 5 kg of cargo, fly for more than an hour on a single charge, and land and take off from very small spaces due to its helicopter-inspired design. The TF-G1 also has a special mode that makes it very stable and safe in the air, even during extreme weather conditions.

Interested consumers can order the TF-G1 online from ThunderFly’s website, where it will ship within 6-8 weeks following the order. Prices for the TF-G1 begin at $9,999 USD. ThunderFly also gives you a simulation model, instructional documentation, and a source code for the TF-G1 on GitHub, and you can buy a set of rotor blades for $499 USD on Tindie. The drone also comes with an expansive warranty that ensures ThunderFly will assist with any hardware or software defects or challenges.
