Fixed Wing & Hybrid Drones
Multi-rotor drones are not usually an option for jobs that implies a large area of land.
If you need a drone for construction, maintenance, agriculture or public safety, a fixed wing will save a lot of time as opposed to landing the multirotor every half hour.
Fixed-wing aircraft can fly up to 10 times longer than multi-rotor drones. Most of these aircraft can easily fly a 250-1000+ acre plot on a single flight. When it comes to surveying, a whole survey can usually be completed on a single flight, saving a large amount of time.
