About

About IQ Square

IQ Square is a rotary VTOL aircraft measuring approximately 41 inches square and fitted with retractable landing gear. Interchangeable cameras and sensors support construction, power-line, industrial and security inspection, while collision detection and autonomous navigation reduce the workload of routine line-of-sight flights.

The aircraft flies for approximately 20 minutes before returning to a charging pad. ZenaDrone is also developing a tethered power-washing configuration supplied from a ground power and water source. IQ Square remains in product development with service-oriented deployments preceding high-volume enterprise sales.
