Aerix Drones announced the release of DaVinci, the company’s first mid-sized aerial photography and racing drone hybrid. DaVinci’s on-board first-person view (FPV) camera streams live video and records to the on-board micro SD card in 720p at 25fps, making it Aerix’s highest resolution video drone yet.

DaVinci features four brushless motors — two standard motors and two inverted motors — for the perfect blend of torque, thrust and lift. It’s capable of speeds up to 30 MPH with a 15-minute flight time. Not only is DaVinci fast, it can also fly up to 250 meters away, the length of approximately two and a half football fields.

DaVinci is the perfect blend of fun and function, as well as cutting-edge design. Aerix engineers have incorporated advanced functions into DaVinci that positions it with drones more than double or triple its price tag. It is equipped with dual GPS to hold height and location, in addition to setting a home point for one-touch takeoff, landing and return to home functions. Low voltage warnings and fail-safe settings ensure you have enough time to return home for a smooth landing.

DaVinci boasts 5.8ghz FPV for low latency live streaming video. The on-screen display includes height, number of satellites, flying direction, horizontal speed, vertical speed and power in real-time

DaVinci is capable of amazing mid-air maneuvers with extremely responsive handling thanks to the stabilizer technology upgrades pre-installed. Its 6-axis gyro-stabilization keeps the drone stable and centered. You can bank hard and fast in any direction and DaVinci will automatically return to center. And 360-degree rotational yaw allows users to seamlessly adjust orientation.
