Martin UAV’s eV-Bat is an electric powered tail-sitter UAV capable of hovering and high-speed cruise flight modes. The aircraft uses an on board flight control system for altitude stabilization and control while hovering, during the transition to, and while in forward, wing-borne flight.
While hovering, the aircraft is oriented with the fuselage vertical and while in cruise flight the fuselage is nearly horizontal. The eV-BAT can operate autonomously from confined spaces, in extremely close proximity to personnel, and provide the efficiencies and range of a fixed wing aircraft.
