Research abstract
Dragoon Technology proposes to develop a power-dense hybrid powerplant meeting the requirements of small deployable Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), providing greater endurance and range than that provided by battery power. Dragoon’s existing hybrid powertrain meets the needs of small, long endurance UAS, and will be adapted to the higher power and more compact form factor requirements of deployed UAS. Several technical improvements are presented and will be investigated in the Phase I for inclusion on a notional powertrain to be developed in Phase II.
