Enabling Better
UAV Flight
Our mission is to extend the capabilities of UAV technology to deliver improved performance, greater efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and cost savings for every type of UAV application.
Increased Endurance
One study shows that a Sentient Blue hybrid powered UAV can deliver endurance of up to 2.5 hours on a Standard ISA Day carrying a useful payload, with no loss of performance in cold weather.
Increased Energy Efficiency
Sentient Blue’s next-generation microturbine runs on fuels such as diesel and Jet A1 with a nominal energy density of 45 MJ/kg.
Decreased Downtime
A Sentient Blue microturbine takes just five minutes to refuel, and offers longer service intervals and greater reliability than existing microturbines.
Decreased Cost of Ownership
In one example, a Sentient Blue hybrid unit would cost $48,000 less than a comparable LiPo system over five years.
