Developed to meet the rigorous standards of the United States Air Force, the IF1200 stands out as a leader in flight time and efficiency for industrial, commercial, and enterprise applications. This heavy-lift hexacopter is the workhorse of the drone industry, offering a safe and reliable platform for various tools needed to accomplish any aerial mission. Certified Blue UAS and NDAA compliant, the IF1200 is trusted by both government and commercial agencies.
Payload Integrations
Inspired Flight Technologies partners with trusted manufacturers to offer a range of payload integrations.. With options for Optical Imaging, EO/IR solutions, LiDAR, and Specialized Solutions, the IF1200 provides a trusted platform for safely flying these valuable payloads.
Flight Time
The IF1200 leads its category in flight times,, attributed to its 16000mAh Intelligent Batteries. These batteries ensure consistent flight duration regardless of payload. The IF1200 offers a maximum flight time of 43 minutes, and real-world flight times of over 30 minutes are achievable even with an 8 LBS payload.
Heavy Lift
To adhere to FAA Part 107 regulations, the IF1200 has a maximum payload capacity of 19.1 lbs, ensuring compliance with the 55 lbs weight limit. With the appropriate certification, the IF1200 can lift payloads of up to 28.7 lbs.
Safety
The IF1200 features SAFE drone capability, allowing it to maintain safe and controlled flights even in the unlikely event of a motor failure. In such cases, the IF1200A alerts the operator to land immediately while staying in a safe manual flying configuration. This ensures peace of mind for operators, particularly when handling valuable payloads or operating over critical assets.
Situational Awareness
With a built-in FPV camera, pilots can have a first-person view of the drone's surroundings in real-time. This feature enhances situational awareness, allowing for more precise control and safer operations, especially in challenging environments.
Inspired Care Plans
Protect your drone with an annual Inspired Care Plan. These manufacturer-provided protection plans include training, discounted parts and labor, priority support, and aircraft replacement in the event of a crash.

FAQ
What is Inspired Flight primarily known for?
Inspired Flight is known for building ruggedized, workhorse aerial systems. The build quality and reliability of its aircraft provide for extended lifetimes, projected over 5 years, protecting your investment for years to come.
Do Inspired Flight aircraft come equipped with Remote ID?
Yes. All Inspired Flight systems that are configured with a Herelink GCS come with Remote ID pre-installed per FAA guidelines.
Can Inspired Flight aircraft be checked on commercial aircraft?
Yes, but batteries will need to be shipped via ground shipping.
What camera do you recommend for inspection?
Inspired Flight’s most popular sensor is the Workswell WIRIS Enterprise camera. This is an EO/IR camera that includes 4 sensors in one payload: a radiometric 640x512 thermal sensor, a 30x optical zoom RGB sensor, a 16mpx wide RGB sensor, and a 1500M laser range finder. The camera includes a set of thermography softwares at no additional cost.
Are Inspired Flight aircraft RTK or PPK enabled?
Inspired Flight aircraft are enabled to receive RTK corrections out of the box. PPK capability is available for an additional cost as the standard receivers onboard the aircraft cannot log and record correction data.
