The LabBird is a science/observation drone. Its intended to be used to deploy equipment from high altitudes or make measurements and assessments itself with its onboard suite. The flyer isn't specialized. This stock version is equipped with two observation blocks on the left and right detachers. The vessel isn't quick, but it is maneuverable and enjoys high altitudes exclusively. The motors that power this plane have a short fuel supply when used in low flight. The color scheme was intended to give the device visible stealth as no radar jamming or stealth measures have been installed. AG 1 controls the right detacher and its associated equipment. AG 2 for the left. AG3 and 4 are for the top and bottom but nothing is installed at this time. AG 5 controls arrester. AG 6 controls the hinge for the lower engine(this helps for low power at high alts) AG 7 is parachutes for the flyer itself. AG8 is electronics for plane including sensor piston at front controlled by VTOL.
