Voliro T Version 5 – DRONELIFE

New Upgrades Enhance Efficiency, Safety, and Durability for Critical Inspections

Industries requiring reliable, efficient inspection solutions in challenging environments now have a new option. The latest release, Voliro T Version 5, brings together hardware and software advancements to meet the growing demand for precise, responsive, and durable inspection technology. Developed in collaboration with experts in Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), this version introduces new capabilities that improve inspection workflows across a range of industries, including wind farms, petrochemical plants, and remote industrial sites.

Enhanced Software for Real-Time Data Management

5G Connectivity for Faster Data Transfer
The Voliro T Version 5 includes a 5G module for real-time data transfer, enabling proactive maintenance and remote software upgrades. The company highlights the benefit of this feature, explaining that it “allows health monitoring, proactive maintenance, and effortless software upgrades making inspection data management more efficient.” This upgrade proves essential for sectors that rely on rapid, accurate data for inspections, boosting maintenance, productivity, and flexibility, especially in remote or hard-to-reach locations.

The real-time data transfer and monitoring also support proactive maintenance. As Voliro explains, “With real-time health monitoring, potential issues can be detected and addressed before they escalate, minimizing costly downtime and preventing equipment abnormalities.” Additionally, the upgraded connectivity empowers operators to make immediate decisions based on live data, further optimizing workflows by reducing response times.

Advanced Safety Features
Voliro T Version 5’s safety features include enhanced motor control with data from Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs), enabling early detection of motor issues. This new system allows pilot operators to address potential motor abnormalities before they impact operations, adding a layer of safety to inspections.

Redesigned Hardware for Reliable Performance in Tough Conditions

New Flight Controller and Tail Motor Enhancements
The updated Voliro T Version 5 hardware includes a redesigned flight controller equipped with a triple-redundant, thermally controlled IMU. This system, paired with an advanced vibration isolation design, provides flight stability even in difficult conditions, such as GPS-denied environments or high-wind locations. With a new Ethernet interface for faster data transmission, the controller allows operators to conduct inspections in real-time, maximizing control over complex inspection tasks.

The tail motor and propeller have also been upgraded to improve responsiveness and stability, particularly in high-wind scenarios. Enhanced controller tuning now offers direct handling and stability, allowing for more precise maneuvers during demanding inspections. The team notes, “Fly it to feel the difference!”

Ruggedized Electronics for Durability
The internal electronics of the Voliro T Version 5 have been overhauled for improved reliability. New PCBs and optimized antennas ensure better performance, especially for the FPV (First-Person View) cameras, reducing risks of video stream interruptions during crucial inspections.

Stronger, More Resilient Components
Several other components of the Voliro T Version 5 have been designed to withstand the harsh conditions often encountered in aerial inspections. The shell and structural elements use high-quality materials to enhance durability and stability in extreme environments. This robust construction aims to meet the challenges of inspecting aging infrastructure, high-temperature facilities, and high-altitude sites.

Additional design improvements include:

  • High-impact resistant Polyamide leg mounts for smooth landings
  • Lightweight LED bumpers built for high-impact situations
  • Improved camera tower for enhanced image stability
  • Corrosion-resistant Torx screws for easier maintenance
  • Tighter tolerance in the payload bayonet for secure attachments

Enhanced Flight Dynamics and Longevity

Optimized Weight for Longer Flight Times
In response to industry demands for longer inspection missions, Voliro T Version 5 is 250 grams lighter, which contributes to better flight dynamics and extended flight times. These modifications enhance efficiency and allow operators to cover larger areas without the need for frequent recharges.

User-Friendly Assembly
The new design also features improved assembly mechanisms, including more secure locking for the bumpers and tail, making it easier for operators to assemble and disassemble the device as needed.

Looking Ahead
As Voliro continues to refine its technology, the Voliro T Version 5 marks an important step forward for the NDT industry. With enhancements in safety, durability, and data management, the Voliro T Version 5 is well-positioned to help industries address the challenges of inspecting critical infrastructure.

As Voliro notes, “The demand for time-efficient, safer, and more reliable inspection solutions will only grow,” and the release of this new version aims to meet these evolving needs.
