Wingtra Introduces RGB61 Payload: The Fastest Mapping Drone Just Got Faster

Building on its customer-centric R&D reputation, Wingtra is proud to unveil the RGB61 payload. A sensor which the company claims, marks a leap forward for the entire drone mapping industry, as engineers have customized the Sony Alpha 7 Mark IV 61MP RGB camera to offer the most efficient, data-light UAV data solution on the market. All of this while offering seamless, in-app light-settings control, and reliable, ultra-high accuracy image capture with every flight.

“Because RGB61 allows you to capture 600 ha (1480 ac) in two flights, instead of three, and process 40 % less data for the same area, customers are going to be able to map large areas in tighter time windows, plus take on more projects due to dramatically faster turnaround times,” said Julian Mackern, Product Manager at Wingtra.

“Imagine if you had a project that would take nine flight hours to cover before, and you could now do it in six but with roughly half the images to process. Because that is what you can do with this payload. All with richer image detail.”

RGB61 is a leap forward in project efficiency from setup to final mapping product. All figures above are compared to Wingtra’s previous flagship payload, the RX1R II, flying at 120 m (400 ft) with 60 percent overlap.
