Platform overview
Persistent watch ability First choice for high-risk tasks
DX-X8 adopts the X8 coaxial redundant motor layout, which can still maintain safe flight even if a single motor fails, providing mission-level reliability guarantee for high-risk industrial and scientific research tasks.
The platform supports tethered power supply expansion, which can achieve 24-hour persistent aerial monitoring and data backhaul (tethered version reference specifications).

DX-X8 · 核心优势
01 — redundancy
X8 coaxial redundancy You can still fly even if the motor fails
There are four coaxial groups with a total of eight motors. A single point failure will not affect attitude control, meeting the reliability requirements of public safety and critical infrastructure inspections.
- X8 layout
- coaxial redundancy
- fault tolerance
02 — tethered
Persistent Watch Extension 24-hour tasks
Optional tethered power supply module, ground continuous power supply and fiber optic data link, support up to 24 hours, 400 ft AGL persistent monitoring (footprint specification).
- 24 HRS Tethered
- 30 GBPS data
- 400 FT AGL
03 — integrated
Professional payload ready 8 kg class platform
Stable hover quality and low vibration mounting design, suitable for long-term observation of EO/IR, communication relay and monitoring sensors.
- 8 KG load
- Low vibration mount
- stable hover
