Centurion, developed by 2RAW in collaboration with iFlight, represents a pioneering step in cinelifter technology. It boasts custom-designed electronics, encompassing motors and a distinctive Thunder 8-in-1 ESC renowned for its exceptional filtering capabilities. Coupled with the formidable processing power of the 2RAW Thunder H7 Flight Controller, this amalgamation delivers unparalleled performance for a 6s craft. Additionally, Centurion is furnished with cutting-edge GPS chips featuring an enlarged antenna, facilitating rapid and precise satellite acquisition.

Highlights

Advanced Truss Arms

The integration of an A-frame design with trusses ensures exceptional stiffness while effectively managing weight, resulting in outstanding performance.

Innovative Camera Mount

Centurion's pioneering camera mount stands apart from others on the market with its adjustable angles ranging from 10 to 50 degrees. Fashioned from 7075 aero-grade aluminium, the mount is elevated to eliminate the propellers from the cinema camera's view. Critically, it is supported along both the horizontal and vertical axes to mitigate payload resonances. As the camera angle increases for heightened speeds, the mount provides increasing support.

AeroShell

The AeroShell not only imparts a distinctive appearance to Centurion but has also been meticulously engineered with the assistance of PHD students to regulate airflow around the body and within the drone. Air ingress occurs through the intakes to cool the ESC, while egress is facilitated through rear exhausts. As the drone's velocity escalates, the AeroShell acts as an air divider, deflecting airflow away from the flat top plate. Moreover, the shell serves as a barrier against dirt infiltration into the electronics.

Thermal Cooling

The shell's design facilitates direct airflow across the electronics, ensuring consistent cooling. Additionally, the O3 Air Unit features an aluminum heatsink and fan assembly installed atop it to prevent overheating, even in the most extreme desert conditions, instilling confidence in operation.

Quick Release Battery System

Featuring a seamlessly integrated quick-release battery system, the Centurion optimizes efficiency in demanding filming environments. Unlike competing models, it employs battery straps and carbon plates, eliminating the need for individual battery tie-downs. This swift battery swap capability enables users to return to flight in mere seconds, enhancing productivity.
