China’s first unmanned helicopter specifically designed for plateau conditions conducted a test flight on Sunday at the world’s highest altitude civilian airport. | ChinaDaily asianewsnetwork asianewsnetwork

The AR500C, designed and built by the AVIC Helicopter Research and Development Institute in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi province, conducted its debut flight on May 20 at the institute’s unmanned aircraft testing base in Jiangxi’s Poyang county. It stayed aloft for about 20 minutes.

The institute said the model was designed based on its predecessor, the AR500B, and in accordance with plateau environments. Zeng’s team started research and development on the AR500C last year, with designers focusing on its engine, rotor wing, aerodynamic modifications and composite materials. The first one was assembled in March and underwent ground tests before its maiden test flight in May.
