eBee X

What is it?

The eBee X by AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc is a lightweight fixed-wing mapping drone designed to capture sharp aerial data over massive agricultural areas.

Mapping expansive agricultural estates or vast forestry regions using standard multi-rotor drones is highly inefficient; their limited battery life requires operators to constantly land, swap batteries, and execute dozens of fragmented flights just to cover a single large farm. This process is gruelling and severely limits daily productivity. The eBee X entirely resolves this coverage limitation. Built as a highly aerodynamic, lightweight fixed-wing aircraft, it boasts an incredible 90-minute flight time. Equipped with on-demand RTK/PPK capabilities, it captures highly precise 3D, RGB, multispectral, and thermal imagery across vast acreages in a single flight, maintaining absolute accuracy down to 1.5 cm without the need for cumbersome ground control points (GCPs).

Why use it?

Deploying a long-endurance fixed-wing drone empowers agricultural mapping professionals to drastically increase their daily operational efficiency. By flying for up to 90 minutes per launch, the eBee X can map massive agricultural holdings swiftly, generating the precise Orthomosaic maps, Digital Surface Models, and NDVI data required for advanced yield prediction and water management. The drone's exceptionally light takeoff weight (1.6 kg) vastly extends its operational possibilities, allowing users to fly safely over people and conduct Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations within strict regulatory frameworks. Ultimately, its compatibility with a wide range of interchangeable cameras ensures that it can flawlessly execute absolutely any agricultural mapping job.
