About
About Evolve Dynamics
Evolve Dynamics builds Sky Mantis 2, a UK-made multirotor for defence, emergency response, public safety and inspection. The sub-eight-kilogram aircraft deploys from a backpack without tools, can fly for up to one hour on swappable batteries and supports quick-change payloads for daylight and thermal imaging, mapping, signals intelligence, communications and target tracking.
The IP55 airframe is specified for temperatures from -30 to 55 degrees Celsius and winds up to 21 metres per second. Standard range is two kilometres, extendable to ten kilometres, with encrypted frequency-hopping communications available for contested environments. Infinity Tether supplies continuous power for persistent observation or communications, while modular and field-accessible components support repair and reconfiguration away from a workshop.
