About Q12
Q12 is SiFly’s long-endurance electric multirotor for public-safety and industrial missions. The current specification lists up to 180 minutes of flight time, 90 miles of range, 60 mph top speed, IP55 protection and payloads up to 10 lb. Swappable payload options cover EO/IR intelligence, RGB and lidar mapping, OGI inspection, delivery, search and rescue, agriculture and hazardous-material sensing.
The aircraft combines onboard AI compute, optical detect-and-avoid, ADS-B reception, Remote ID, dual RTK receivers and a radar altimeter. Cellular, Wi-Fi and sub-GHz radios support command, control and live video across changing coverage conditions. SiFly lists Q12 for preorder and says field assembly can take the aircraft from its case to flight in under five minutes.
