ROQUAI M1 Micro sub 250 g indoor research and education drone with ducted propellers

ROQUAI M1 Micro

The ROQUAI M1 Micro brings the open ROQUAI platform down to classroom and lab scale. Under 250 g with fully ducted propellers, it is safe to fly around people and needs no GPS: optical flow and a rangefinder give stable indoor position hold out of the box.

A Python SDK and ROS 2 bridge over Wi-Fi make it ideal for teaching autonomy, computer vision coursework and multi drone swarm research. Fleet pricing available for universities and schools.

Lead time three to five weeks. Purchase orders accepted.
