Product overview
The Yifei Zhineng Lightning F38 combines vertical takeoff and landing with fixed-wing cruise for long-distance, wide-area tasks in power utilities, firefighting, public security and environmental protection. Its quick-release construction supports transport and field assembly, while runway-independent operation broadens launch and recovery options. The 3800mm-span aircraft uses an integrally molded carbon-fiber composite structure with a beam framework and semi-rigid shell. All avionics sit within the smooth fuselage. Payload capacity is specified by mass at 6kg.
The standard package supplies a flight platform with an airframe, controller, one 30AH propulsion battery, charger, four motors, four propellers, installation tools, customized onboard wiring, documentation and a customized packing case. Its GOE412 wing, developed from CLARK-Y, combines sweep, a 2° incidence angle and no dihedral with an inverted-V tail. Maximum endurance is 240 minutes for the unladen aircraft; empty weight excludes the battery. Operating limits include a 36kg maximum takeoff weight, Force 7 wind resistance and a -20°C to 50°C ambient range. Aircraft parameters can be customized, with the delivery contract determining the agreed configuration.
