摘要:
Fire fighting drone comprising an exoskeleton defining an internal space extending along an axis H and a flexible bag stably housed in the internal space, provided with a release valve and configured to contain a fire fighting liquid; a support structure provided with a plurality of thrusters adapted to perform a thrust that enables the support structure to be supported in flight; the support structure is connected to a first end portion of the exoskeleton; a plurality of movable directional wings carried by the exoskeleton, extending outwards from the exoskeleton itself and angularly movable relative to the exoskeleton around respective axes H transverse to the axis H; an electronic control unit adapted to control the thruster, to generate the release signal and adapted to control the actuators that perform the rotation of the wings; the electronic control unit is configured to control said wings to allow the rotation of the wings during the free-fall phase of said drone which is released from an aircraft and thereby performs a certain trajectory of said drone from the aircraft to a launch zone; the electronic unit is configured to enable the discharge of said liquid from said bag and the activation of the thrusters following the discharge of the liquid to enable the flight of the support structure and of the exoskeleton containing the empty bag to a landing zone.
