Engineering:Z-Fly UAV
Z-fly UAVs are Chinese UAVs developed by Changsha Z-Fly Aerial Photography (Z-Fly, 湖南长沙志翔智能科技有限公司/志翔航拍). Originally an aerial photography company, Z-fly have been using many UAV produced by other manufacturers to perform aerial photography. Operation and maintenance of purchased UAVs have provided Z-fly considerable experience in UAV arena, which it has eventually ventured into by developing its own brand of UAVs. Three of the UAVs Z-fly operates are its own designs, developed by integrating various separate subsystems from different suppliers.
