About JOUAV PH-20

PH-20 is JOUAV's six-rotor heavy-payload aircraft for inspection, mapping, security and emergency-response work. Its carbon-fibre structure, plug-in arms and common electrical payload interface support LiDAR, RGB or oblique cameras, EO/IR gimbals, spectral imagers and synthetic-aperture radar. The current product page lists a 24.9-kilogram maximum takeoff weight and ten-kilogram payload.

Flight time varies materially by configuration: JOUAV specifies 100 minutes empty, 55 minutes at full payload, 70 minutes with a gimbal camera and 75 minutes with LiDAR. Four-way millimetre-wave radar supports obstacle avoidance, while the controller uses sensor redundancy and emergency protection. Current specifications list 20 m/s maximum speed, 30-kilometre operating radius and IP45 protection.
