Quantum-Systems

The Tron was the first electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) fixed-wing unmanned aerial system (UAS) developed by Quantum-Systems. It served as the foundational platform for subsequent developments within the company. The Tron can carry payloads and sensors weighting up to 2 kg. This model was discontinued in December 2020. {{Citation needed|date=October 2023}}

The Trinity series is a line of battery-electric drones with a wingspan of 2.4 meters and a maximum flight duration of 90 minutes. The drone operates effectively in temperatures ranging from -12°C to +50°C and has a cruise speed of 70 km/h.

The Trinity's first prototype had its maiden flight in 2016, with serial production beginning in 2018. The model is equipped with three VTOL transition tilt-rotors and a modular payload system, allowing it to carry up to 700 grams. The fuselage is made from a foamed material to enhance durability. {{Citation needed|date=October 2023}}

The Vector & Scorpion series is a 2-in-1 system that began serial production in 2020. The Vector is constructed from carbon-fiber-reinforced material, providing resilience in various weather conditions. The Scorpion is a short-range tricopter designed for endurance. Both UAS share the same fuselage.
