Yaró
Yaró (Harpy in the Amazon Yanomami language) is a rugged and reliable 150kg (330lbs.) aircraft designed for flexible payload integration, and operation in extreme environments.
Yaró is a UAS family of products commercially launched in 2008. Our first commercial model was the venerable 450 single-engine, then followed by our dependable flagship, the Yaró 650 twin-engine model in 2009.
Since then, Yaró are periodically upgraded to take advantage of advances in electronics miniaturization and sensor detection range, enabling us to increase aircraft speed, flight height and range capabilities.
Yaró 150
Yaró 150 is a Class II UAS with Class III capabilities.
This very light airframe is designed to be at the top of its Class in payload capacity, cruise and maximum speed, and endurance.
Its control system alternatives range from high-end DO178C/ED-12 and DO254 standards compliant, to cost-effective autopilots, and datalinks (talk to one of our Representatives about special configurations).
Yaró is in Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 8, and is undergoing pre-commercial tests until Sept. 2022.

Modular Airframe Architecture
A totally new engineering concept, for faster manufacturing, and easier servicing and maintenance.
Fuel tank intelligently designed and unobtrusive, permitting internal electronics and payload location in the centre of the aircraft.
Payload bays with easy access, distributed electric sockets, and wide pipes for extra wiring and fibre optics.
Reliable Rotary Engine
Water cooled, heavy fuel, rotary engine, long TBO (800 hours), high performance with a very flat torque curve, low emissions, and very low vibration due to fully dynamically balanced rotating masses.
- Type: 4-stroke, single rotor EFI engine.
- Power: 42 HP.
- Fuel type: Heavy fuel.
- Cooling: Liquid cooled.
Payload
Yaró provides:
- Main central payload bay of 1.40m x 0.40m x 0.38m (4.60ft x 1.31ft x 1.25ft).
- Rear bay for electronics with 0.47m x 0.39m x m (1.31ft x 1.28ft x ft).
- Two belly insertions (for externally mounted sensors, like gimbals or Radar).
- Two underwing hard points for pods or pylons.
- Antenna location on top of the fuselage.
The internal payload compartments can be suited with swappable cartridges for easy payload plug-and-play reconfiguration.
Yaró can be suited with up to 60kg (132 lbs) of (multiple) payload, like:
- Radar and EO/IR/Multispectral/LRF;
- EO/Low-light/MWIR/LRF gimbal with target illumination capabilities;
- SIGINT or other third-party payload sensors.
