While keeping amazing energy economy, the Alpine Scout Ultra shines in high-altitude activities. Whereas the platform's innovative thermal management system recovers waste heat for power generation, its turbocharged electric propulsion system is tuned for thin-air performance. To maximise lift and reduce drag over different altitude ranges, the drone's adaptive control surfaces automatically change, therefore guaranteeing best energy use over its mission envelope.
