Camera options are selected for the mission. Other cameras and sensors can also be integrated.
Mission and data capabilities
Mission execution
Automatic flight along planned routes and inspection points, under operator supervision.
Manual control
The operator can fly manually or take over control when required.
Live monitoring
Position, flight parameters, battery status, mission progress and camera feed.
Post-mission data
Data can be made available for review and further processing within 5 minutes after mission completion.
Modular payload
A camera or sensor selected for the task without changing the aircraft platform.
Post-mission data availability does not mean a finished report or an automatic diagnosis. The application and automated reporting remain in development.
PROTOTYPE 2 TEST RESULTS
Results from the endurance trials
Prototype 2 was assessed at TRL 6 in the milestone report dated 30 August 2026. The trials used a single configuration with a thermal imaging camera.

Test scope: These results apply to the specified configuration and test conditions. They are not a guaranteed flight-time specification for every mission.
DEVELOPMENT DIRECTION
Our vision
We are developing SkyHover to connect mission planning, data collection and analysis in one inspection workflow. Our aim is to help teams move from observations to decisions with fewer manual steps.
What
We are developing SkyHover towards a fully autonomous inspection platform that carries out missions, gathers data and turns it into useful information.
For whom
For infrastructure operators and inspection teams across energy, rail, industry and other large-area assets.
Goal
Our goal is to make the end-to-end inspection process up to 10× faster than traditional methods. This is a development goal, not a verified result for every mission.
THE SKYHOVER PLATFORM
SkyHover up close
SkyHover's multirotor design combines hovering with mobile field operations.
We configure the platform for the specific task, environment and data required.
MISSION WORKFLOW
Why a longer operating window matters
When a mission is split across several flights, it involves repeated landings, servicing and take-offs. A longer operating window may reduce some of these interruptions.

SKYHOVER IN PRACTICE
The platform in practice
A pilot trial lets you assess SkyHover for your task. Before the flight, we agree what to observe, which data to collect and how to evaluate the trial.
An existing platform
SkyHover is a platform being developed by SkyMav.
Developed in Poland
The SkyMav team leads the platform's development.
Configuration assessed for the task
We agree the payload and conditions before the trial.
POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
Potential applications
Six areas to discuss a possible SkyHover trial. We assess the scope and platform fit separately for each task.
01
Solar installations
A trial with RGB or thermal imagery: can the material identify areas for further verification? No guarantee of precise temperature measurement.
02
Power lines and transmission assets
A trial observing a line, pylon or substation from selected points. We assess whether the imagery is sufficient for the agreed evaluation.
03
District heating and gas networks
RGB imagery or thermal screening of selected sections could be the focus of a trial. We agree how to observe the site and assess the material before the flight.
04
Water infrastructure
A trial observing a reservoir, canal or embankment. We assess whether material from selected points answers the questions of the team responsible for the asset.
05
Military applications
Observation of a specified area requires a separate assessment of the objective, permissions, access, responsibilities and permitted data collection.
06
Search and rescue
A trial involving area observation or reconnaissance support requires a separate assessment with the rescue team. We agree the platform's role and how to assess the data before the flight.
DISCUSSION, TRIAL, POSSIBLE NEXT STAGE

Discuss your mission
Tell us what you need. We'll discuss whether a SkyHover pilot trial or support for your UAS project could be the next step. Do not send confidential information.
Do not include confidential information or restricted technical parameters. At this stage, the objective and mission context are enough.
SkyMav develops the SkyHover platform and works on UAS projects within a scope defined after a review.
