The Quantix drone by AeroVironment is a commercial-grade unmanned aerial vehicle. It can be used to collect data and analyze the results, and can communicate with a Decision Support System (DSS) compatible with other unmanned systems. Its unique vertical takeoff/landing motion and range allows it to reach greater distances than traditional unmanned aircraft. The drone can cover 40 miles in an hour. However, the price has yet to be revealed.
Draganfly
Quantix Draganfly's global dealers network is composed of professional dealers who provide pre and post-sales as well as marketing support. The company has welcomed dealers from the U.S.A., Canada, and is now looking at interest from Latin America. To better cater to different market segments, the company offers different levels of representation. You can read more about the benefits to becoming a dealer.
AeroVironment, a leader in the commercial drone and first responder drone markets, and Draganfly, a developer of custom software and contract engineering services, understand the value that the Quantix Mapper system can provide. Draganfly will expand distribution of its drones by focusing on direct-to-consumer and reseller channels. They also plan to offer drones for civilian and military applications. Draganfly has been making drones for over 22 years. However, AeroVironment is a manufacturer and distributor of unmanned aerial systems. The two companies intend to expand their collaboration and their partnership in other sectors over the coming years.
Aerovironment, Draganfly and a distribution agreement have been signed. Draganfly will be selling Aerovironment's commercial drone, Quantix Mapper. The deal makes sense for both companies and shows how the major drone industry players are defining themselves from one another. Patrick Imbasciani is Draganfly's Chief Operative Officer. He explains the reasons for this partnership. AeroVironment will continue to use the company's contract engineering services. The company will also distribute its products to customers all over the world.
AeroVironment
AeroVironment has developed the Quantix, an unmanned aerial vehicle. The Quantix is a multi-domain robotic systems leader and was designed for farm use. It has a 1-meter wingspan, carbon fibre spar reinforcement, vertical takeoff-and landing and a data analysis ecosystem. It automatically surveys land for signs of crop stress and water issues. Farm operators don't need to be trained and can use the drone without any prior experience.
The Quantix can combine vertical takeoff and landing making it compatible to many unmanned systems. It can fly up up to 45 minutes over an area of 400 acres. It's compatible to AeroVironment’s Decision Support System and other unmanned devices. It can fly vertically, but it quickly changes to horizontal flight when in the air. This gives it more range. AeroVironment claims that the drone can travel 40 miles per hour and more features are planned.
Quantix Recon comes with a ruggedized Ground Control Station tablet, which can be used in the field by operators. It comes with one airframe, three batteries, and some spare propellers. It is more cost-effective than expensive models and parts can easily be replaced. As the Quantix Recon is less sensitive to damage, it's less likely to need repair or replacement. The Quantix Recon's camera as well GPS and software are all built into the tablet's operating system. Operators can access them even without an internet link.

How To
Repairing A Drone's Damaged Motor
It is important to first identify which motor part is damaged before you can repair it. The easiest way to do this is to remove the propeller from the motor shaft. Then, you need to remove any wires connected to the motor and inspect its inner workings. If you notice something amiss, you'll know what part of your motor to fix.
If there is no damage to the motor, then you don't have to worry too much however if the motor looks like one of these images below, then you'll need to replace some components before you can fly again.
Imagine that the motor has become bent to the point it will not turn. To get the motor to turn again, you'll need to bend it. To hold the motor in place, you can use a pair or vice grips. After you have completed this step, be sure to inspect the motor for any signs of wear.
Once you're satisfied that everything's ok, put the propeller back onto the motor shaft and reattach the wires. Now your drone is ready to fly!
