Sentinel Drone Performane Charactiristics
-
Hello ModalAI,
what are the performance specs for the Sentinel Drone?
Specifically those which are not mentioned on the Sentinel webpage:• Cruise speed (normal operation)
• Max horizontal speed
• Max wind speed for safe operation
• Max range
• Max altitude MSL
• Max rate of climb
• Max rate of descend
• Max gross weight (empty weight + battery + max payload) – Sentinel Drone without 5G modemThank you,

We have the following on our datasheet, the rest are un-measured
- Cruise speed (normal operation)
Not on datasheet, but as a development platform this is configured by the developer via standard PX4 configuration
- Max horizontal speed
"5m/s per PX4 setting"
- Max wind speed for safe operation
Max not measured, but tested at 30MPH gusts
- Max range
Not measured
- Max altitude MSL
"122m per PX4 setting"
- Max rate of climb
Not on datasheet, but as a development platform this is configured by the developer via standard PX4 configuration
- Max rate of descend
Not on datasheet, but as a development platform this is configured by the developer via standard PX4 configuration
- Max gross weight (empty weight + battery + max payload) – Sentinel Drone without 5G modem
1347g (1011g without battery), 1kg payload capacity

Thanks, Chad.
Any chance we can get some better numbers or estimates ?
The PX4 related items are just user-defined and don't correspond to the actual physical capabilities of the drone, which we would need to categorize the UAS into a safety class. -
We really don't have anything better, sorry. The Sentinel is really intended to be a development platform, and not support any mission critical activities.
