SIASUN UAV is a Chinese UAV developed by Shenyang SIASUN Robot & Automation Co. Ltd. (SIASUN, 新松机器人自动化股份有限公司). The development of SIASUN is the direct result of 2008 Chinese winter storms, which resulted in massive power outage in China. The weather conditions prevent the conventional manual inspection of powerlines carried out by foot because access was severely limited, and as a result, SIASUN developed an UAV specially designed to carry out aerial inspection of powerlines under severe conditions such as thunderstorm, heavy rain and heavy electro-magnetic interference. SIASUN UAV is an unmanned helicopter of conventional helicopter layout with Fenestron design. Specification:[1]
