PRISM FLIGHT MANUAL
9
PRISM is a rotorcraft that may fly as either a Quadcopter or Coaxial X8 with four or eight motors
arranged in either configuration, capable of operating in a wide range of conditions for a wide range of
applications.
Each motor is mounted on the end of a carbon-fiber arm at equal intervals around a flight deck using
aviation-grade aluminum fastenings. The central flight deck contains the avionics between two
protective carbon-fiber plates, with side-mounted data and power ports to allow sensor and battery
payload integration on the top or bottom of the airframe using the integrated 12mm rail system,
according to the user’s needs.
