Additionally, a variety of other controllers are available to suit different operational needs and preferences.

Inspired Flight Suite on multiple devices: Laptop, Flight Controller, and mobile
Inspired Ground Control (IGC) is a purpose-built pilot control interface and mission planning application for Inspired Flight UAVs. As a branch of QGroundControl, many interfaces will be familiar, but have been streamlined for enhanced usability and efficiency.

Situational Awareness

With a built-in FPV camera, pilots can have a first-person view of the drone's surroundings in real-time. This feature enhances situational awareness, allowing for more precise control and safer operations, especially in challenging environments.

Easy to Transport

The IF800 TOMCAT's foldable frame and removable landing gear make it compact and easy to store in its rugged hard case. The case provides ample space for accessories, batteries, and payloads, and features wheels and a retractable handle for effortless transportation.

Intelligent Batteries

Engineered with internal cell balancing, health monitoring, and cycle tracking, the IB388 ensures optimal flight time in demanding environments. The IB388 batteries directly communicate with the IF800 Tomcat and support NFC communication for reporting in depth status to operators without the need to power on the drone.

Inspired Care Plans

Protect your drone with an annual Inspired Care Plan. These manufacturer-provided protection plans include training, discounted parts and labor, priority support, and aircraft replacement in the event of a crash.

      What is Inspired Flight primarily known for?
      Inspired Flight is known for building ruggedized, workhorse aerial systems. The build quality and reliability of its aircraft provide for extended lifetimes, projected over 5 years, protecting your investment for years to come.

      Do Inspired Flight aircraft come equipped with Remote ID?
      Yes. All Inspired Flight systems that are configured with a Herelink GCS come with Remote ID pre-installed per FAA guidelines.

      Can Inspired Flight aircraft be checked on commercial aircraft?
      Yes, but batteries will need to be shipped via ground shipping.

      What camera do you recommend for inspection?
      Inspired Flight’s most popular sensor is the Workswell WIRIS Enterprise camera. This is an EO/IR camera that includes 4 sensors in one payload: a radiometric 640x512 thermal sensor, a 30x optical zoom RGB sensor, a 16mpx wide RGB sensor, and a 1500M laser range finder. The camera includes a set of thermography softwares at no additional cost.

      Are Inspired Flight aircraft RTK or PPK enabled?
      Inspired Flight aircraft are enabled to receive RTK corrections out of the box. PPK capability is available for an additional cost as the standard receivers onboard the aircraft cannot log and record correction data.
