ICON V2 MY2022<\/strong> is our versatile<\/strong> performance<\/strong> drone. It combines two souls: the versatile soul of the multirotor and the performance soul of the fixed-wing aircraft. Aerodynamic laws claim that an aircraft, because of its ability to sustain itself with a fixed wing, has a much higher aerodynamic efficiency than those with a rotary wing. This difference translates into the lower amount of energy required for the fixed-wing aircraft to fly: with the same “energy fill,” the aircraft is able to fly for longer than a helicopter can, although the latter is much more versatile because of its ability to fly fixed-point, land and take off vertically.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Switching from one flight mode to another is a difficult operation and must be controlled byvery sophisticated electronics<\/strong>, thanks to which it becomes a like child’s play. In the case of operating in assisted flight mode, switching from fixed-point flight to translational flight and vice versa is done by the simple switching of a switch; ICON V2 takes care of the rest. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Going into more detail, the transition from fixed-point flight to translated flight is made by activating the thrust motor and, once the minimum flight speed is exceeded, gradually shutting down the sustaining motors. Conversely, the transition from traversed flight to fixed-point flight is made by turning off the thrust motor, assuming a gabled attitude to brake and, as the minimum flight speed is approached, activating the sustaining motors. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>ICON V2 MY2022 WAS BORN FROM THIS CONCEPT TO BE THE MINI-PLANE<\/strong> EQUIPPED WITH THE ROTORS OF A QUADRICOPTER<\/strong>, CAPABLE OF TAKING OFF AND LANDING VERTICALLY<\/strong>.<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
