In Novosibirsk, Russian engineers have developed a micro-UAV "Bumblebee" on the British model. This is a helicopter-type drone.

According to the RIA Novosti news agency, this information was provided by Denis Kotin, who heads the organization that created the aircraft.

The developers represent the Novosibirsk Competence Center for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. They hope that the products they have created will be ordered by the Russian defense ministry and the country's special services.

This organization was created only this year. The Novosibirsk State Technical University (NSTU) became the base for it. The Center's specialization is the creation of new models of unmanned vehicles.

According to Kotin, Novosibirsk engineers have already created the first prototype. When developing it, they focused on the British micro-drone Black Hornet ("Black Hornet").

Our task in this segment was to approach the well-known analog in terms of technical characteristics and dimensions

- Kotin said, saying that "the device is already flying."

For the rest of the year, we should already demonstrate the prototype to potential consumers

- he shared the further plans of the staff of the Center.

The weight of the new device is 85 grams. It is able to travel at speeds of up to 25 km per hour. The maximum range of the UAV is two kilometers, and the time spent in the air does not exceed 20 minutes.
