It has 48x zoom, and has low-light capabilities for night operations. The Vesper also boasts a much more sophisticated camera system than its predecessor. Vesper also has a much more robust radio link than the Snap it’s good for up to five kilometers and it’s AS256 encrypted for military customers. Vesper will fly close to an hour,” Fisher said. “Vesper is better on every metric relative to Snap. Its civilian version sells for about $8,000. The Vesper was one of the five drones to be accepted for military use under the Blue sUAS project. “It was really apparent that there were a lot of elements of Snap that really didn’t make sense for industrial and commercial and military customers.” “Snap was designed as a consumer drone, and then it turned out it was more applicable as a commercial drone,” he said. Fisher said the decision to transition from consumer market to the military/industrial/commercial market began after the Snap was introduced. In 2018, in response to the U.S Department of Defense’s Short-Range Reconnaissance (SRR) program, Vantage developed the Vesper drone, the company’s CEO and cofounder Tobin Fisher said in an interview. But with the introduction of Vesper, Vantage has shifted its focus strictly to attract military, first responder and commercial drone users. When Silicon Valley-based Vantage Robotics, founded in 2013, introduced the Snap, the first drone to receive an FAA waiver for flight over people, the company had its eye on the prosumer market. The following list, in no particular order, is composed of quality drones built in the U.S.:
based drone manufacturers are coming forward with quality high-end drones designed for the commercial user or governmental agency. that fall outside of either end of that range. The good news is that there are a handful of quality drones on the market, produced by companies that are either owned or headquartered in the U.S. consumer drone market, the bad news for non-commercial drone users is that there are few American companies that are producing quality drones in the price range between $300 and $1,000 to compete with DJI’s products. With Chinese-owned company DJI maintaining its control of about three-quarters of the U.S. And even if the final product is assembled in America, the drone itself can contain some parts produced elsewhere, including China. the company manufacturing them can be based elsewhere – Paris, France-based Parrot for example, or China as is the case of the parent company of Autel Robotics. While some unmanned aerial systems are produced in the U.S. However, finding 100% pure American drones can be more difficult than it would first seem. With all of the drama engendered by the U.S trade war with China and concerns over potential national security issues, many drone enthusiasts and commercial drone users are eager to buy drones that are manufactured by an American-owned company in the U.S.A.
