A compact XOS-enabled unmanned aircraft system combining protected flight, human-guided autonomy, resilient communications and mission-specific payload capability for complex indoor, urban and GNSS-denied environments.
GNSS-denied flight Protected airframe Dynamic launch XOS integration
Designed for complex operational spaces
XTEND positions Scorpio 500 for precision operations in indoor, urban and GNSS-denied environments. Its compact protected architecture supports controlled flight near walls, floors and obstacles while maintaining operator supervision through XOS.
01 Protected Flight
The enclosed airframe supports operation close to structures, walls, floors and other obstacles.
02 GNSS-Denied Operation
Designed for mission environments where satellite-navigation availability is limited or unavailable.
03 Dynamic Launch
Published launch options include deployment from the ground, by hand or from an airborne platform.
04 Automatic Recovery
The platform can recover following contact with a wall or when positioned on its back.
XOS-enabled human-guided autonomy
Scorpio 500 operates within XTEND’s XOS ecosystem. The architecture combines human mission authority with autonomous navigation, perception and task-execution functions, reducing continuous manual-control demands while maintaining operator supervision.
