In recent years, the market for Vertical Take-Off and Landing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (VTOL MUAV) has grown exponentially. To answer to the market evolution, FLYING-CAM developed an electrically motorized helicopter called  «SARAH» pushing technology to the state-of-the-art on the world map.

The market has pushed Flying-cam to launch a research that will extend their knowledge to develop a long-range version of the Flying-Cam III SARAH. This new functionality will address, for example, the needs of civilian  and homeland security  applications.
