ABOUT HELIUS

Advanced Situational Awareness in the Palm of Your Hand: Law enforcement, fire service, and EMS operators often need immediate aerial visibility in environments that are too dangerous to dispatch human operators or where larger unmanned systems are impractical, restricted, or too slow to deploy. HELIUS nano UAS was designed to fill that gap.


The 249g HELIUS is ultra-compact, rugged, and can be deployed in seconds, enabling airborne awareness in confined spaces, adverse weather, and time-critical situations. It delivers actionable intelligence without the logistical overhead typically associated with unmanned aircraft.

DESIGNED FOR THE MISSION:
RELIABLE, REAL-TIME, HAND-DEPLOYABLE, OVERWATCH

Rugged Coaxial Architecture


A dual-rotor coaxial configuration provides inherent stability and precise control, particularly in high-wind and confined environments.

Ultra-Compact Form Factor


Weighing under 250 grams, HELIUS minimizes regulatory and logistical burden while remaining highly portable and easy to carry.


All-Weather Construction


Aircraft-grade materials and sealed construction enable reliable operation in rain, snow, dust, and high winds where comparably sized and consumer drones cannot perform.

Integrated Sensor Payload


An onboard electro-optical payload delivers real-time video without modular assembly, calibration, or complex pre-flight procedures.


Advanced Onboard Software


Full-featured remote drone operation with complete command and control over the internet, enabling high-quality, real-time video streaming to multiple browsers and seamless live viewing from anywhere.

OPERATOR BENEFITS

  • Hand-launchable in under 30 seconds
  • Operate in confined or cluttered environments
  • Maintain performance in adverse weather
  • Reduced training, regulatory, and logistical burden
