About

About NOA

NOA is a six-motor professional aircraft with a folding frame, weather-resistant construction and an open payload interface. Acecore offers a regular configuration with greater lifting capacity and a sub-25-kilogram configuration for operations governed by that weight class. Flight endurance can reach about 80 minutes in a lightly loaded configuration.

The payload panel accepts lidar, mapping cameras, inspection sensors and customised equipment, with power and data integration completed around the mission package. Redundant propulsion and flight systems support industrial operation, and the airframe folds for transport between sites. Acecore supplies NOA directly with ground equipment, training, payload engineering and maintenance services.
