Professional VTOL UAV — 1.1 m Wingspan | Vertical Take-Off & Fixed-Wing Cruise
Designed for a clear purpose.
The 3DPrintedSolutionsNL Professional VTOL UAV is a high-performance unmanned aerial platform engineered for professional inspection, mapping, research, observation and advanced UAV applications.
Designed around a lightweight 1.1-meter fixed-wing VTOL airframe, the system combines the operational flexibility of vertical take-off and landing with the aerodynamic efficiency of conventional fixed-wing flight.
The aircraft can take off vertically without a runway, automatically transition into forward flight and return to VTOL mode for landing.
Powered by an ArduPilot-compatible autopilot system, GPS navigation and a 6S propulsion platform, the aircraft is designed as a complete professional UAV solution rather than a conventional hobby aircraft.

Payload Capability
The aircraft has a maximum take-off weight of 2.5 kg, including battery, electronics and installed payload.
Typical available payload capacity is approximately:
500–700 g depending on aircraft configuration.
Actual usable payload depends on:
- Battery size
- Installed camera equipment
- Telemetry hardware
- Total aircraft weight
- Center of gravity
- Flight conditions
- VTOL thrust margin
- Mission profile
For example, an aircraft weighing approximately 1.8 kg ready to fly provides approximately 700 g remaining before reaching the 2.5 kg maximum take-off weight.
Final payload capability must always remain within the approved center-of-gravity and aircraft weight limits.
ArduPilot Professional Flight System

- Current monitoring
- Configurable failsafes
- Telemetry
- Ground Control Station compatibility
Optional advanced navigation hardware can also be integrated.
VTOL + Fixed-Wing Technology
Traditional multicopters are extremely flexible during take-off and landing but require continuous motor power to remain airborne.
During fixed-wing flight, the aircraft wings generate aerodynamic lift.
This significantly reduces the amount of propulsion power required during forward flight.
The result is a platform that combines:
VTOL flexibility
with
Fixed-wing efficiency
The aircraft can therefore operate from compact launch areas while still providing efficient cruise performance.
Modular 3D-Printed Airframe
The aircraft uses a lightweight additive-manufactured airframe designed around replaceability, serviceability and efficient production.
Key structural features include:
- Lightweight printed fuselage
- Modular wing sections
- Carbon wing reinforcement
- Reinforced motor mounting areas
- Removable wings
- Removable tail
- Replaceable printed components
- Accessible electronics compartments
Damaged individual sections can be replaced without replacing the complete aircraft.
This significantly simplifies maintenance and reduces long-term operating costs.
Propulsion System
The aircraft uses a 6S tri-motor propulsion architecture.
The system includes:
- 3× Brushless Motors
- 3× Electronic Speed Controllers
- VTOL tilt mechanism
- High-efficiency propeller configuration
- Power distribution system
- Battery voltage monitoring
- Current monitoring
The two forward propulsion units provide VTOL and transition functionality.
During forward flight, the aircraft operates as an efficient fixed-wing platform.
