Australian UAV model Silvertone Flamingo has a fairly significant dimensions of its fuselage, in particular, the length of this drone is about 2,1 meters, while the wingspan is about 2,4 meters (indicators depend on the modifications and versions UAV). Net weight of UAV 25 kg, with, if necessary, on the drone may be installed accessories such as surveillance camera apparatus for recording the meteorological conditions and so forth.

Management drone aircraft carried out exclusively with a special remote control, which can be connected to a computer for recording video from the camera (availability depends on the possibility of drone version). This fact allows us to control the drone only in the presence of a direct statement that to some extent reduces the functionality of the drone.
