“A prototype of the Nastasya tiltrotor drone has been created, which has the ability to take off and land vertically, like a quadcopter, and at the same time is equipped with an aircraft wing to increase the speed and flight range,” a plant representative told RIA Novosti.

According to him, “Nastasya” is needed to relay the signal; the drone can provide it up to 100 km. The product is capable of carrying a payload of up to 3 kg, and the maximum flight speed is 100 km/h. All drone electronics are entirely domestically produced.
