Sometimes it’s barely impossible to launch the unmanned aerial vehicle from the runway which is the reason why UKRSPECSYSTEMS designed the bungee catapult launcher SCL-1A.
Bungee catapult launcher SCL-1A is constructed to start UAVs with MTOW up to 10 kg at a speed of 25 m/s (90 km/h). It also can perform launches despite harsh weather conditions and in the temperature range from -15° to +40°C.
The bungee UAV launcher functions autonomously and is powered by a lead-acid battery. The quantity of launches relies on the capacity of the battery, its charge, and the environmental temperature, securing up to 9 launches. Also, a car accumulator may be used as a power supply source.
Launch control is performed by the remote wire control panel up to 100 m long. The tension may be altered in two modes: manual and automatic. Also, tension can be tracked by the indicator of the electronic dynamometer.
And one more thing: bungee UAV launcher SCL-1A may be assembled by two persons within 15 minutes.
UKRSPECSYSTEMS offers a complete educational course, involving theoretical and practical training to control the bungee UAV launching system for its clients.
