FLIR Block 2 Tether Kit

The Tether Kit enables continuous operation of the aircraft and attached payloads delivering power and data for secure and RF-quiet operations. Payload lift capacity supports a broad spectrum of mission sets. Intelligent altitude management maximizes operational envelope while minimizing operator burden. Should a loss of tether power occur, the system will warn the operator and continue to fly on internal batteries until a low-power condition triggers either an automatic descent to a safe AGL altitude, or a safe auto-land.Continuous Power And Communication To Aircraft And PayloadsEnables continuous operations of R70 & R80D Block 2 aircraft and attached payloads delivering power and data for extended secure RF-quiet operation.Multi-Mission SupportSupports payloads up to 4.4 lbs. (2.0 Kg) enabling execution of a broad spectrum of static and on-the-move mission sets using advanced Teledyne FLIR and third-party payloads.Unsupervised Flight Operations Across Evolving Environmental ConditionsIntelligent altitude management maximizes operational envelope across varying environmental conditions thus minimizing operator burden.
