YANGDA CEO’s Keynote Speech on Drone Capacity and Operations

YANGDA is proud to announce that our very own CEO, Gary Chen, delivered a keynote speech at the event. He shared his knowledge on drone capacity and operations, discussing the following:

Drone Capacity Essentials

Our CEO emphasized what most people need to know about drone capacity, including the specs that allow drones to perform complex tasks, such as payload, flight time, and maneuverability. Payload refers to how much weight a drone can carry, which is important for tasks requiring extra gear like a gimbal camera. Flight endurance refers to how long a drone can fly, which is essential for tasks demanding extended periods of operation, such as surveying. Maneuverability refers to the drone’s ability to move efficiently in tough situations.

Operational Applications

YANGDA’s drones are used in many fields, demonstrating their versatility. In environmental conservation, drones can be used to observe wildlife and study their habitats. Emergency response is another example where drones have proven useful. Workers in this industry can use drones to monitor oil pipeline leaks, perform rescue missions, and track particular vehicles or people.

YANGDA VTOL: Real-World Case

YANGDA’s Sky Whale Series VTOL is undoubtedly built for tough missions that require efficiency and endurance. It boasts excellent specs, such as a large payload and long flight time, making it a perfect drone for use in versatile applications.

YANGDA’s drone technology, as presented by CEO Gary Chen, highlights our company’s drive for innovation. Our Sky Whale Series VTOL is our work, trusted by many industries.

Collaboration Within Nigeria’s UAS Ecosystem
