The circo drone can be mounted on a conveyor belt and thousands can be produced. It has passed tests so far and can be put into service soon.

Ihor Krynychko, chairman of the supervisory board of Skyassist Scientific and Production Company LLC, founded after the large-scale invasion, said engineers were trying to create a functional but inexpensive drone that could be mass-produced.

“We use a polymer (name not disclosed – ed.) made abroad. It allows you to stamp planes very quickly. Two in 18 minutes. So, the production possibility is simply insane. Now the workshop is set to produce a thousand parts per month and we can still scale up,” he said. .

The circus costs $3,000 without the ground station. The company offers a complex of a station and three drones for $9,250.

The wingspan of the Sirka is very small compared to drones with similar functionality – only 93 centimeters. Of course, this is an important advantage. The closest foreign products to “Kharkov” are 1.67-1.7 meters long. It weighs about 1.4 kg.

“God forbid, if the soldiers start shooting, then “Sirko” hides in a bag behind his shoulders – and the soldier escapes. Larger drones need to be disassembled: remove one wing, the other, and now is the time,” he said.

In addition, the polymer used is radiolucent. As Krynychko points out, it’s the ground station, not the person with the “burning” control panel.

The company is currently working on a pulse version of the drone.
