Dorsata
Persistent · Capable · Modular
Dorsata is the heavy-lift multirotor in the Apis family. It carries larger sensor packages - visual, thermal, mmWave - and watches longer than any other multirotor in its class. Where Kari is a scout and Cerana is a fixed-wing watchstander, Dorsata is the mid-envelope platform that brings multirotor lift to long-loiter sorties.
Capabilities
- Heavier sensor payloads - visual, LWIR, mmWave
- Long-loiter multirotor envelope, 90+ min on station
- Sustained operation in monsoon and high-altitude regimes
- Reference heavy-multirotor for the Karta autonomy stack
Doctrine bounds
Dorsata composes sorties in TENERE. It is operated for long-watch ISR, inspection, and logistics. When it carries a delivery payload, the drop is a planned, authorized action on the sortie graph, audited like any other.
