HTNA UAVs are Chinese UAVs developed by Shenzhen High-Tech New Agricultural Co., Ltd. (HTNA, 深圳高科新农技术有限公司) mainly for agricultural applications. Originally, NTNA converts existing Chinese UAVs for agricultural applications, but later the company begun to manufacture UAVs of its own design.

Unmanned helicopters

HTNA unmanned helicopters are developed by utilizing existing subsystems such as airframes and flight control systems (FCS), and integrating these subsystems as one complete UAV system. As of end of 2014, there are two unmanned helicopters that are indigenously developed by HTNA itself, in addition to Z-3N, which is converted from NRIST WZ-3.
