Airframe performance
Maximum takeoff weight, supported payload mass, flight endurance and environmental ratings, compared under the manufacturer's stated test conditions rather than as a guaranteed flight time with every payload.

Drone Intel Overview
Drone Intel is Thermisight Drone's research desk for aircraft, thermal payloads and the requirements that shape an aerial imaging system. It brings specifications, compatibility questions and cited research together so operators can make a more informed equipment shortlist.
This public overview explains the research. The separate library contains saved findings and a live research tool.
What Drone Intel covers
Thermal payloads
The exact detector pixel array, lens focal length, pixel pitch and thermal sensitivity where published. Records also state whether a payload captures radiometric temperature data or provides thermal video only.
Aircraft and sensor compatibility
Gimbal mounting, power, data connections and supported flight software all affect whether an aircraft can carry a sensor. The full configuration is confirmed with the manufacturer before it reaches the catalog.
U.S. procurement and flight rules
NDAA Section 889, Blue UAS listings, Trade Agreements Act origin and FAA Part 107 are separate questions. One compliance label does not establish every procurement requirement or authorize a flight.
How to read the research
The research library keeps a summary, key specifications, source links and a research date on every record. Start with the exact aircraft or payload model, open the cited documentation, and check that its configuration matches the equipment you intend to use.
- Published
- The record identifies its figures as manufacturer-published.
- Partial
- Some figures are published; others come from dealer or secondary documentation.
- Estimate
- One or more figures are inferred and need confirmation.
- Unknown
- Firm figures were not available for the answer.
A missing specification is not a promise of compatibility or performance. Confirm current pricing, configuration, compliance and operating requirements with the manufacturer and the relevant authority.
