It is the drone that can take off anywhere – but still fly at the speed of a plane.

The Quantum Tron craft boasts a wingspan of 11.5 feet, a top speed of 80 kilometers an hour, a 160 kilometer range, a maximum payload of 5.5 pounds, and between 70-120 minutes of flight time depending on speed.

The firm behind it says it will be used for everything from creating 3D maps to deliveries.

The system has been designed to flexibly, quickly and safely integrate different sensors in order to meet the needs of a variety of fields of application.

”The transition combines long range and efficiency with the ability to vertically take off and land without additional equipment.”
