200? This company was established in January 2005, although activities had begun some
four months earlier and the first of two prototype unmanned helicopters was
flown in late 2004. The i-Copter made its public debut at the Australian air
show at Avalon in March 2005, the Seeker version being known at that time as the
Series 2. A family of three versions was said to be planned, of which two have
since emerged, the third being understood to be an enlarged variant of the
Seeker with twin turboshaft engines. Plans were to certify the UAVs for use in
controlled airspace, for a range of applications such as agricultural/farm
patrol and police work. Jane's Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Targets |
