Flyby F-11 Drone

Programmable Drone built for Artificial Intelligence

Product descripton: Flyby F-11 Drone by Flyby Robotics

The Flyby Robotics F-11 Series is an American-made programmable drone with large ML compute capability. Our system is engineered to be deeply modifiable by developers, yet ready for rapid and ruggedized field deployment. The F-11 Series is engineered to provide a stable foundation for heavy machine learning applications, precision aerial data capture, developer-configurable autonomy, and heavy payload effects. The system excels in current and emergent use cases across industrial, public safety, and defense sectors.

Compute & Payload
At the heart of the F-11 Series is its integrated Nvidia Orin NX GPUs, offering a massive processing power of 157 Trillion Operations Per Second (TOPS) compute in base configuration and 314 TOPS in dual GPU configuration. With its 1024-core NVIDIA GPU, 32 Tensor Cores, 16 GB RAM per Orin module, and onboard SSD storage of up to 2 TB, the F-11 Series is the leading choice in providing developer accessible computational power. Its design supports over 5.7 lbs of usable payload capacity and features versatile interface ports including USB 3.0, Ethernet, and Flight Controller Telemetry, all within a weather- and thermal-resistant airframe, ensuring operational readiness under any conditions.

Precision Engineering. Extended Flight. Adaptive Payload Support
Precision is at the forefront of the F-11 Series. On-board dual Ublox F9P RTK receiver modules provide the F-11 Series with RTK capabilities, offering centimeter-level position accuracy. With a forward flight time of approximately 1 hour, supported by its powerful 22,000 mAh / 902 Wh dual hot-swappable batteries, the F-11 Series delivers long flight times even in high GPU utilization and austere conditions. Designed for flexibility, the F-11 Series supports a wide range of sensor payloads, including ultra-high zoom visual, high-resolution thermal cameras, LiDAR, and the ability to easily mount your own payloads. The F-11 Series’ deep open software architecture and physical adaptability provide accelerated integration of any user-desired payloads.

NDAA Compliance
The Flyby F-11 Series is assembled in America with an NDAA-compliant supply chain. Users may select between the F-11H, compliant with 2020 NDAA Sec 848, or F-11D/F-11S, compliant with 2023 NDAA Sec 817, and the 2024 American Security Drone Act.
