The 10inch Fiber Optic FPV Drone is a mid-size tethered unmanned aerial platform built for professional operators who require a balance of payload capacity and flight endurance. The aircraft uses a fiber-optic tether in place of a conventional wireless control link, reducing the risk of RF signal interruption in electromagnetically contested environments. With a rated payload of 4 kg for the 10-inch configuration and a maximum control range of 20 km, the system is suited to surveying, public safety, and defense contracting applications. The airframe includes modular payload bays that support custom sensor integration, and the entire system is manufactured under ISO 9001 quality management standards. This product page covers the 10-inch variant; the parameter table below also lists 12-inch and 14-inch family members for reference.
The 10-inch propeller class airframe is constructed from carbon fiber composite and is rated to carry a 4 kg payload. The modular payload bay allows customers to integrate cameras, multispectral sensors, or other mission-specific equipment without modifying the core flight structure. Fixed landing gear provides clearance for underside-mounted payloads and the fiber spool assembly.
A micro fiber-optic cable connects the drone to its ground control station, paying out from an onboard spool during flight. The optical link carries command signals and HD video, and because it transmits data as light rather than radio waves, it is resistant to RF jamming and interception. The maximum tether length for the 10-inch model is 20 km.
The 10-inch configuration achieves a maximum horizontal speed of 110 km/h and a maximum flight time of 25 minutes or more, depending on payload weight and environmental conditions. The fiber tether does not require line-of-sight radio alignment, allowing operation in terrain where wireless links would be obstructed.
Rated Load | 4 / 6 / 8 kg (10" / 12" / 14") |
Max Control Range | 20 / 30 / 50 km+ (10" / 12" / 14") |
Max Horizonatal Speed | 110 / 100 / 90 km/h(10" / 12" / 14") |
Max Flight Time | 25 / 30 / 35 min+ (10" / 12" / 14") |
Surveying firms can mount photogrammetric or LiDAR sensors in the 4 kg payload bay to collect geospatial data over sites up to 20 km from the ground station. The fiber link maintains video and control during flights over terrain that would obstruct conventional radio links.
Public safety agencies use the platform for situational awareness during incidents where local RF spectrum may be congested or intentionally disrupted. The tethered link reduces the risk of losing control or video feed during critical operations.
Defense contractors and security integrators can integrate custom payloads — including EO/IR cameras and specialized sensors — into the modular bay. The system's resistance to RF interference supports operations in contested electromagnetic environments.
Redpoint offers payload integration services, custom fiber lengths, and ground station configuration to meet customer requirements. Pricing, minimum order quantities, and lead times are provided through direct quotation based on the selected configuration. The company supplies technical documentation, operator training, and spare parts support for all delivered systems. Manufacturing follows ISO 9001 quality management procedures.
The 10-inch configuration is rated for a 4 kg payload and a maximum flight time of 25 minutes or more. Actual endurance varies with payload weight, wind conditions, and flight profile.
The table covers the full product family. This page describes the 10-inch variant, which corresponds to the first value in each row (4 kg, 20 km, 110 km/h, 25 min+). The 12-inch and 14-inch models are listed for comparison and are sold as separate SKUs.
Yes. The modular payload bay is designed for customer-specified equipment. Redpoint provides mechanical and electrical interface documentation and can assist with integration during the configuration process.
The fiber-optic tether transmits control and video as light pulses through a physical cable, rather than via radio waves. This makes the link resistant to RF jamming and interception and maintains signal quality over the full 20 km tether length without requiring line-of-sight alignment.
