[PRWeb Nov 16, 2006] http://www.prweb.com/releases/rc-toys/rc-helicopters/prweb478874.htm Fri, 17 Nov 2006 11:44:59 -0800 podcrew@extrahoop.com rctoys.com. The new site makes it easier for customers to find what they want, and features products unavailable elsewhere. Founded in 1998, Draganfly Innovations started as a mail order business specializing in radio control flying machines. Initially selling basic radio control airplanes and blimps, Draganfly began to design and develop their own aircraft. Draganfly Innovations currently has a staff consisting of 22 full and part time employees, from various backgrounds such as hobby enthusiasts, engineers, designers, combat robotics participants, and customer service specialists. The store specializes in selling RC helicopters, airplanes, indoor helium blimps, Thunder Power lithium polymer rechargeable batteries, brushless electric motors, and RC radio equipment and components. Draganfly Innovations is the manufacturer of a unique line of quad rotor electric helicopters, named Draganflyers. Rather than following the standard helicopter layout of a single horizontal main rotor with a smaller vertical tail rotor, Draganflyer helicopters have one rotor at each of the four corners, and maneuver using differential thrust. The first Draganflyer helicopter was developed in 2000, and has since gone through several revisions. There are five models currently available including the newest aerial video version, the Draganflyer SAVS (Stabilized Aerial Video System). The redesigned website features a smoother, more up-to-date interface, and focuses on customer needs. Dual top and side-bar navigation allows users to move deeper into specific categories, yet still be able to return to any other page with a minimal number of clicks. Individual products have been given their own image gallery, videos, detailed descriptions, technical information, product reviews, related parts and accessories, and suggested items. "We are excited about the new features, many of which were added in response to customer requests," says founder Zenon Dragan. "Research into web usability, and extensive user testing played a large role in the redesign". One of these features is a wish list that allows customers to compile and save items they would like into a list that can be made available potential gift givers. Product software and manuals have been gathered together and made available on a new downloads page. The shopping cart system is even able to intelligently suggest other items that may be needed, based on what is currently in the customer's...

Sophisticated onboard technology allows beginner pilots to achieve professional results. [PRWeb Nov 9, 2006] http://www.prweb.com/releases/Draganflyer_SAVS/RC_helicopter/prweb475940.htm Fri, 10 Nov 2006 16:16:15 -0800 podcrew@extrahoop.com Draganfly Innovations introduces the Draganflyer SAVS, a miniature radio controlled electric helicopter with a wireless color video camera. The RC helicopter provides a cost effective alternative to obtaining quality aerial video, which until recently, required renting a full sized helicopter or airplane. The Draganflyer's self leveling feature and anti-vibration camera system, which produces high quality video, makes it a viable alternative to a full sized helicopter. Aerial video is in demand for purposes such as surveying, real estate marketing, and inspection of hard to reach or dangerous locations. Due to the expense, noise, and scheduling problems associated with a full sized helicopter, aerial video was not always an option. Prior to the Draganflyer SAVS, mounting a video camera on a miniature RC helicopter would result in a shaky video, and would still require hiring a skilled pilot to control it. The self leveling feature, referred to as Thermal Intelligence (Ti), works by using four infrared sensors which rely on the temperature difference between the sky and ground. Using input from these sensors, the on-board CPU automatically returns the helicopter to level when the control stick is released. It will stay level until the pilot inputs a pitch or roll command. This makes the RC helicopter easy to fly, and makes professional quality aerial video available to everyone at a low cost. The Draganflyer SAVS helicopter's high quality video is possible because of the anti-vibration video camera mount which isolates the camera from any vibration present in the rest of the helicopter. The onboard wireless 2.4GHz CCD camera transmits live video to a ground base station, and uses advanced circuitry featuring several filters and independent regulated power supplies to preserve the clarity of the video signal. The base station features a Diversity video receiver which dynamically chooses the best signal in real time. Other technology used in the Draganflyer SAVS includes three piezo-gyros (similar to those used on cruise missiles) which aid in stabilization, lithium-polymer batteries which allow flight times up to 15 minutes, and a rugged carbon fiber and nylon frame. The Draganflyer SAVS weighs in at only 19 ounces and measures 30 inches, and comes completely assembled in a custom built hard case including everything needed to fly. Inevitably, helicopters crash, but the Draganflyer's carbon-fiber and nylon construction provides excellent durability. The Draganflyer SAVS requires no time-consuming setup. The Draganflyer's sophisticated design eliminates the need for 95% of the parts required by conventional remote control helicopters. A flight simulator and DVD with complete footage of assembly and training are included. About Draganfly Innovations: Draganfly Innovations has been manufacturing radio controlled helicopters, airplanes, and airships for eight years. From toys to industrial radio control products for police and military, prices range from $29 to $10,000. Draganfly's innovative products have been featured on CNN Headline News, MSNBC, Discovery Channel, and in magazines...
