FLYING-CAM ignited the close range aerial filming concept in the 1970s and has been leading the way with its Award-winning Flying-Cam I and II Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in the motion picture industry. Today, FLYING-CAM continues to change the face of the Industry with the introduction of the Flying-Cam III SARAH.

Liege, Belgium (7 February 2011) – FLYING-CAM today released SARAH, a revolutionary electric VTOL (Vertical Take Off and Landing) MUAS (Miniature Unmanned Aerial System) featuring 25 Kg / 55 Lbs take off weight and 30 minutes flight time with a 5 Kg / 11 Lbs payload. It is the result of 7 years R&D; from the Flying-Cam Unmanned Aerial System division. Under the same roof, the Gyro Head, the flying Platform and last but not least the Automatic Pilot (Flying-Cam CAP System) was developed to a unique state of the art integration.

Incorporating efficient aerodynamics, innovative automatic flight modes and modular interchangeable payloads all in a portable unit that is quickly deployable, the SARAH system provides unprecedented precision Aerial Imagery Intelligence.

SARAH is designed with uncompromised picture quality in mind, responding to the most demanding Digital Cinema and Field Production Live Broadcast Industries. SARAH provides a fully electric solution, smooth and powerful.

A new gyrostabilized Camera Head is integrated in the system using motion control space age technology. It includes automatic horizon leveling and can host cameras like Canon 5D, RED EPIC, Sony PMW-EX1, SONY PMW-F3 or PANASONIC AG-AF 100, including the nano flash technology system or HD live broadcast transmitter with COFDM low latency technology.

For Special Aerial Response, the SARAH gyrohead can also integrate a FLIR P Series thermals sensor, a laser range finder or a CBRN sensor for plume tracking and remote threat detection.

The Flying-Cam SARAH is the first VTOL MUAV providing high precision positioning and navigation. With a heading accuracy of 0,5° and a DGPS with 2,5 cm precision, it offers new possibilities for geo-tracking, from Civil Security to Defense missions.

The Spanish Aerospace Research Centre FADA-CATEC has taken delivery of its first SARAH systems. They will be used for air traffic management and general aviation research, technology & development projects in partnership with BOEING, EADS and AIRBUS MILITARY.
