Shortly after, the LFMT made a breakthrough by initiating two new, UAV-design related projects: The DELAER RX-3 and the MPU RX-4. The RX-3 is a tactical UAV that will be able to cover large-scale surveillance missions and swiftly deliver 50kg of useful payload via airdrop in times of crisis or rescue missions, whereas the RX-4 is a micro, versatile UAV that will be able to cover surveillance-related missions at almost any terrain using its novel VTOL and hovering capabilities.
The three robotic unmanned airborne systems, RX-1, RX-3 and RX-4, were presented at the Thessaloniki International Fairs (TIFs) that took place in 2016, 2018 and 2019, respectively.
Pegasus Actuators supplied the control surface actuators for those systems.
Professor Kyros Yakinthos, Director, Laboratory of Fluid Mechanics & Turbomachinery Department of Mechanical Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki had this to say about us: "Thank you guys! I really appreciate your support and your will to help us!"
