FS60E UAV Key Parameters:
Max takeoff weight: 63 kg
Payload capacity: up to 18 kg
Flight endurance: up to 6–8 hours

VTOL UAV

Propulsion systems:
HOBBYWING V Series motors for vertical takeoff and landing
HOBBYWING C Series motors for fixed-wing cruise (pusher propulsion)

 fixed wing motor

Intelligent Propeller Control (IPC) Function

To meet the demands of long endurance and high-efficiency operations, HOBBYWING VTOL motors and cruise motors integrate IPC (Intelligent Propeller Control) propeller positioning technology. When paired with HOBBYWING H series drone ESCs, the propeller stop position can be flexibly configured.

VTOL motor

Cruise Propulsion with IPC

During takeoff and landing, the pusher motor uses IPC function to align the propeller horizontally, preventing ground contact and potential propeller damage.

vertical takeoff

VTOL Propulsion with IPC

During long-range missions, when transitioning to fixed-wing cruise mode, IPC locks the rotor propellers parallel to the airflow direction. This significantly reduces aerodynamic drag caused by idle rotors, improving FS60E UAV cruise efficiency and extending flight endurance, ultimately enhancing overall UAV energy efficiency and mission performance.
