EFT X6100 Multifunction Surveillance Hexacopter Drone Frame

The EFT X6100 is a folding six-arm airframe for surveillance, inspection and light-payload missions, built on a 1000 mm wheelbase for 17 to 18-inch propellers and 6S power. It carries 3-5 kg of payload within a 12 kg maximum take-off weight, enough for camera pods, sensors and similar mission equipment.

Key features

• IP65 waterproof and dustproof body for flying in rain and dusty conditions
• Umbrella-style folding takes it from 1447 x 1447 mm down to 541 x 478 mm for transport
• Each arm detaches separately at designed break points, so a damaged arm is replaced on its own rather than with the fuselage
• Tool-free battery changes on a quick-release track with a spring-loaded positioning knob
• Modular, one-piece moulded fuselage keeps assembly simple
• Hovers for about 27 minutes with 5008 motors, a 6S 16000mAh pack and 17/18-inch props at 6.85 kg take-off weight
