A few days ago, at Fengming Navigation Airport in Zigong, Sichuan, a large-scale four-engine drone codenamed "Double-tailed Scorpion D" entered the runway independently and took off smoothly. After flying for 18 minutes, it landed smoothly, and the whole flight was trouble-free. The first flight was a complete success.

　　This type of UAV is a large-scale four-engine UAV independently researched and developed in China, with complete intellectual property rights. It has larger loading space, heavier loading capacity, stronger power support and higher system reliability and flight safety. It can carry more high-performance mission loads and perform support tasks such as freight logistics, aviation broadcasting and mission load use.

　　This time, the large-scale four-engine UAV achieved its first flight, further enriching the application scenarios of commercial large-scale UAVs, and also marking that China’s large-scale UAV industry has the ability to quickly develop and respond to different market needs. "Double-tailed Scorpion D" will be transferred to Zhuhai after its successful first flight, and will be unveiled at the upcoming 14th China Air Show.
