Field deployments

Real platforms. Real missions. Real customers

Harris Aerial’s H6 EFI — our field-proven gas-electric hybrid drone — is already doing what no other US drone in its category can do. 

Controlled by our advanced C-GCS ground control station, watch the H6 EFI Hybrid effortlessly carry the Phoenix LiDAR Systems RANGER-UAV22 FLEX — a high-performance 5kg LiDAR sensor no other platform in the H6 EFI’s class integrates and flies with this level of ease.

Gas-electric hybrid power • Extended endurance • Heavy-lift capability.

Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA.

Harris Aerial’s H4C is shipping December 31, 2026 — and the prototype is already doing what no other US drone in its category can do.

With a maximum payload capacity of 4kg, watch the H4C carry the Phoenix LiDAR Systems RANGER-U120 — a payload no other USA  mid-size quad platform integrates with and carries with ease.

Compact. Foldable. Heavy-lift power.

Harris Aerial participated in the @topodot Users Conference 2026 at the Rosen College of Hospitality Management in Orlando, FL in support of our partners @phoenixlidar Systems. 

It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with industry professionals and showcase our next-generation drone LiDAR technology:

* H4C Quad (launching Dec 2026) with Phoenix LiDAR Systems RANGER-U120
* Carrier H6EFI Hybrid with Phoenix LiDAR Systems RANGER-UAV22 FLEX
 🇺🇸 NDAA-compliant ground control stations (C-GCS & C-NAVIGATOR featured)

🇺🇸 Harris Aerial designs, manufactures, and assembles field-proven, NDAA-compliant drones for the most demanding applications — including high-performance aerial LiDAR data collection.

We are pushing the limits EVERYDAY on our H4C iterations, and we are loving every minute of it!  We can’t wait for our official H4C release- GAME CHANGES SOON!

This demo featured our versatile heavy-lift drone platforms, the H4C (coming DEC. 2026) integrated with Sentera’s 65R high-accuracy RGB, 6x multispectral, and SPH’s Magnimbus magnetometer. To wrap up, we took our flagship H6 Electric with the SPH EchoSounder ECT 400S sonar for a spin to fight the high 30+ mph sustained winds and choppy surf to collect subsurface point cloud data.

At Harris Aerial, we’re obsessed with building the most reliable and versatile heavy-lift drones that make integrating advanced sensor payloads like Sentera and SPH Engineering easy while ensuring peace-of-mind during operations.

Shoutout to the @senterasensors and @sph_engineering teams for the great@collaboration!

Back at Jupiter Inlet, FL— testing our prototype H4C heavy-lift platform with the @sph_engineering MagNIMBUS atomic magnetometer to detect and map magnetic anomalies with high precision.
Ultra-low flights capture clean magnetic data even in 30+ mph winds. Ideal for coastal UXO, pipeline, or subsurface surveys.
Real-world stability + terrain following on point. Harris Aerial + SPH = mission-ready.

Recent flight operations over the Jupiter Inlet in Florida, using our H4C heavy-lift quadcopter platform, demonstrated the Sentera 6X multispectral sensor’s capabilities in a coastal environment.

Key highlight: seamless integration with the 65R high-resolution payload via Smart Dovetail mount—tool-free swap in seconds, secure mechanical and electrical connectivity, enabling rapid transitions between multispectral and other payloads with minimal downtime.

Delivers synchronized high-res RGB + 5-band multispectral imagery at ~3 cm GSD, fully stabilized and geo-referenced for precise analysis.

Every H4C prototype iteration continues to prove its value for heavy-lift UAV missions requiring field-reliability, heavy payload flexibility, and easy one-operator transport ahead of its Q4 2026 release.

We’re partnering with @senterasensors to put their cutting-edge 65R high-resolution RGB sensor through its paces. This beast delivers 65MP global shutter imagery (9344x7000 resolution), ultra-sharp 0.45cm/pixel GSD, exceptional color accuracy, and seamless RTK integration—perfect for precision mapping and survey-grade data.

We mounted the 65R on our prototype H4C drone (heavy-lift champ with up to 4kg payload and 50+ min flight times) and headed to the stunning Jupiter Inlet, FL for real-world testing. The coastal dynamics, inlet channels, and surrounding waterways provided a challenging environment (30+ mph sustained winds) to capture detailed aerial RGB imagery and evaluate H4C flight performance.
