FY (FY= Fei-Yu or Feiyu, 飞宇) series UAV is a series of Chinese micro air vehicles (MAV) developed by Guilin Feiyu (meaning Flying Universe) Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. (Feiyu Tech, 桂林飞宇电子科技有限公司), a Chinese firm traditionally being a subcontractor of subsystems to other major aircraft manufacturers. Feiyu Tech has expanded its business from flight stabilization systems, autopilots, and data radio into UAVs by first venturing into MAV, and FY-X4 Pro QuadCopter and FY-Y6 Scorpion Copter are the result. Both MAVs have been shown as various exhibitions in China for numerous times, and both have been evaluated by local Chinese law enforcement, but it’s not clear if they have entered regular service with Chinese military because no official governmental confirmation has been released by Chinese authorities yet.
