UAV's | MP-Visione | MP-TRAINERg | MP-TRAINERLRC

The MP-Visione is our “ramped up” trainer UAV package. Only $9,500 USD, this trainer uses a sturdy, mass-produced model airplane strengthened for use as a UAV as the basic platform. The MP-Visione can be modified (within limits) to suit your application and is ideally suited as a trainer. At a fraction of the cost, the MP-Visione offers MP2128g autopilot into an RC airframe. The MP-Visione can perform autonomously or with RC control. The MP-Visione is an essential training tool that can jump-start your UAV program.

Note: MP-Visione will work with MicroPilot accessories. We do not give pre-programmed flights with MP-Visione.

Variety of Applications

Aerial Photography Option

A universal cameral box is included and a digital camera can be attached. Recommend the Pentax Optio models. The Pentax has an infrared sensor for the shutter which allows us to use an infrared L.E.D. switch to trigger the shutter through commands given by the autopilot. In addition, we have designed a universal camera box that attaches securely to the wing and is held on by elastics bands. The camera and universal camera box together weigh five ounces (145 grams).

With the MP-Visione you have the option to develop and integrate you own sensor or camera.

RC Control

  • RC Transmitter and receiver can be purchased locally for warranty and frequency purposes

Carrying Case

A carrying case can be purchased locally at Sporting Goods stores. Dimensions, 5.75 in (d), 12.75 in (w) and 51.5 in (l).
