Falcon 8 Gets FAA Exemption

摘要

Topcon Positioning Group has received a Section 333 exemption from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that allows for operation of its Falcon 8 rotary-wing UAS in the United States. The Topcon Falcon 8, powered by Ascending Technologies, is designed for inspection and monitoring, as well as survey and mapping applications. Topcon's Sirius fixed-wing UAV received an exemption in April. The exemption allows Topcon to provide demonstrations and training as well as aerial data collection for survey, construction, agricultural, and emerging inspection applications.
