Overview

 Swellpro Falconry Drone

 

The Falconry drone is currently being used by many falconers for falcon training. A falconer can fly a lure at a certain altitude for the falcon to chase and catch, thus encouraging the falcon to go higher, building their strength, and conditioning them. 

The Falconry drone can carry up to 2kg in weight on it’s Payload Release Mechanism. The drone is able to bring down the Falcon to a certain height and only release the parachute when the Falcon is close to the ground. The payload can be released via the remote controller.

A trollsafe device can be mounted onto the drone that can automatically release the lure when it reaches a threshold of tension.

The Falconry edition also can fly as high as 500 meters – please check with local regulations first.

What’s In The Box?

SwellPro FD1 Aircraft x 1 Remote Controller x 1 Power Adapter x 1 6500 mAh Flight Batteries x 2 Trollsafe x 1 PL1-F Payload Release x 1 Propeller Pairs x 3 Hard Carry Case x 1

IP67 Rated & Seawater Proof

The fuselage of the SwellPro Falconry Drone is made from industrial-grade ABS and is 100% water-sealed and pressure-tested. Both the external waterproof motors and internal electronics are coated for further corrosion-resistance. Please thoroughly rinse after using in saltwater, ensuring there are no salt deposits remaining.

Go Against The Wind

 

The new propulsion system and flight computer are tuned to maximise control responsiveness and allow the Fisherman to fly in winds up to Beaufort Force 7.

Beaufort 7	Wind Speed
	28-33 Knots 32-38 MPH 50-61 KMH 13.9-17.1 M/S

 

Fly Safe

Intelligent Return To Home After dropping your baits simply flick the return to home switch on the controller and the drone will fly itself back to its take off point and gently land automatically so you can focus on reeling the fish in!

New interference Resistant GPS & Altimeter Design

The new elevated GPS and altimeter pod provides more precise position and altitude control against interference. The new pod also makes sure the compass always “go north” in unusual magnetic fields.

Anti Pendulum Feature

Drones may have a pendulum motion when flying with a payload. This feature can reduce the pendulum effect on the Falconry Drone by controlling acceleration and de-acceleration.

Failsafe Return

In case of loss of signal or when the battery level reaches the low threshold the Falconry Drone will automatically release the fishing line and return to its starting point.

Controller

Simplified Remote Controller

The new dust-proof and splash-proof remote controller keeps flying simple. The integrated high-brightness 3-inch digital display provides critical flight information so you don’t need a phone or tablet to fly your baits. Even novices can learn how to fly the Falconry Drone in just a few minutes.
