Tianxiang UAVs are Chinese UAVs developed by Beijing Tianxiang (meaning Sky Soars) Aerospace Science and Technology Co., Ltd. (Tianxiang, 北京天翔航宇科技有限公司). Tianxiang products covers a wide range of unmanned aircraft, including paragliders, helicopters, fixed wing airplanes and blimps. [1]
TX-20 UAV is an octocopter with a pair of skids as landing gear. Most components of TX-20 are imported from Germany. [2]
Tianxiang has developed a series of unmanned blimps of various sizes, with designation ranging from TX-7 to TX-20, intended for various civilian and military applications. Most models share the same gondola to simply logistics and reduce cost.
TX-300 is an UAV developed by Tianxiang mainly for aerial survey, photography and cinematography missions. [5]
TX-2000 Clairvoyance (Qian-Li-Yan or Qianliyan, 千里眼) is an UAV in flying wing layout, with twin tails. Propulsion is provided by a two-blade propeller driven by a tractor engine mounted in the nose.
TX-3000 is a high altitude, long endurance unmanned blimp and has been deployed by Chinese military and law enforcement agencies in various missions such as disaster relief and communication relay. [7]
TX-10000 is an unmanned powered paraglider (San-Yi Wu-Ren-Ji, 伞翼无人机). [9] Various types of parachute can be utilized, and externally, TX-10000 somewhat resembles a smaller version of MMIST CQ-10 Snowgoose. TX-10000 is powered by a twin-cylinder 65 hp engine. [10]
TX-20000 UAV is another unmanned powered paraglider developed by Tianxiang. [12] TX-20000 is the larger cousin of the smaller TX-10000, and it can either be deployed either as a powered version like TX-10000, or as an unpowered version. TX-20000 is the Chinese equivalent of MMIST CQ-10 Snowgoose and performs similar tasks.
TX multirotor UAV is an unmanned helicopter with a total of sixteen rotors which are arranged in a very unusual way that is different than most multirotors currently in service. The layout of TX Multirotor is a large cross, and each arm of the large cross is a smaller cross. There are four rotors installed on each arm of the large cross, with two rotors on the tips of the shorter arm of the small cross. The remaining two rotors is mounted on longer arm of the smaller cross, with one on each side of the shorter arm, one of them halfway between the shorter arm and the tip of the longer arm, and the other halfway between the shorter arm and the base of the longer arm that is attached to the center of the multirotor. [14]
TX unmanned glider is an unpowered unmanned paraglider intended for emergency communication relay in situations such as post disaster relief.
Z-Fly UAVs are Chinese UAVs developed by Changsha. Originally an aerial photography company, Z-Fly have been using many UAV produced by other manufacturers to perform aerial photography. Operation and maintenance of purchased UAVs have provided Z-Fly considerable experience in UAV arena, which it has eventually ventured into by developing its own brand of UAVs. Three of the UAVs Z-Fly operates are its own designs, developed by integrating various separate subsystems from different suppliers.
BMP UAVs are Chinese UAVs developed by Beijing MicroPilot Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Flight Control System Ltd. , a company originally formed in 2001 specifically handle the import business of autopilots produced by Canadian firm MicroPilot for UAVs. Over the decade, the company expanded its business to importing other flight control systems to China, such as those produced by Russia. In recent years, in addition to being a supplier of subsystems to other Chinese UAV manufacturers, BMP further expanded its business to developing its own brand of UAVs by integrating autopilots and flight control systems to existing airframes, but there are some BMP UAV are designed by BMP itself. As an original equipment manufacturer, BMP is also contractor to produce UAVs developed by other Chinese establishments such as universities, research institutes and other Chinese UAV manufacturers.
