R550X
The R550X is a multi-mission uncrewed helicopter built on the Robinson R44 platform. It’s equipped to lift heavy loads up to 550 kg in all weather conditions – including at night and limited visibility. It ships in a ready-to-fly configuration and can be customized with a range of mission and autonomy payloads.
Ground Control Station
The GCS comes ready for service with multiple communications options and redundant electrical power. A side-by-side dual-pilot configuration with quad 32” glass cockpit displays provides situational awareness like you’ve never seen before.
Synthetic Vision and CloudPilot empower pilots to fly from anywhere
Rotor’s Synthetic Vision system is enabled by low-latency satellite and cellular communications. Our mobile ground control system relays digital flight controls to the R550X, and can be operated from thousands miles away, in the most challenging terrain and conditions.

Safety Guaranteed

Simplified Vehicle Operations
Rotor’s software and remote piloting system make single-engined helicopters more reliable and easier to fly, especially in difficult conditions like at night and in degraded visual environments.
