Arcsky is excited to announce the launch of the X55 V2, a new iteration of its flagship X55 industrial drone. Designed to meet the demands of modern industrial applications, the X55 V2 builds on two years of proven performance with significant enhancements inspired by customer feedback and advances in technology.

“The X55 V2 represents our commitment to continuous innovation and meeting the evolving needs of our customers,” said Wilson Lau, co-founder of Arcsky. “This update incorporates cutting-edge features that streamline operations and improve reliability in the most challenging environments.”

Key Features and Improvements

Enhanced GPS System

The X55 V2 now comes equipped with dual Here 4 GPS modules for improved accuracy and redundancy. Powered by the professional-grade u-blox F9P dual-band RTK navigation system, the X55 V2 offers a moving baseline RTK feature, which is available upon request. This feature is particularly beneficial for areas with magnetic field anomalies or during high-voltage power line inspections, and allows the GPS system to be used for yaw estimation, rather than relying on compasses.

Refined Mechanical Design

The X55 V2’s main body, which is still precision-machined from a single aluminum block, has been redesigned to significantly enhance stiffness and reduce vibration. This results in 15% better control system performance and more robustness. The O-ring-sealed perimeter of the X55 V2 body ensures reliable operation, even in light rain. Additionally, the upgraded arm holder and landing gear designs allow for quicker setup and teardown without the need for tools. 

Master Payload Connector

The X55 V2 features a rugged mil-spec master payload connector, providing all the necessary signals and power for nearly all payloads in the market. This enables users to efficiently swap between payloads while maintaining the same interface connector. Every Arcsky-supported payload includes a compatible mating connector, simplifying integration for both current and future payloads.

AUX Port and Accessory Power Flexibility

The existing auxiliary communication (AUX) port connections remain intact, while the accessory power system now features a conventional XT60 plug, providing greater flexibility for third-party payload integration. The XT60 output voltage can also be customized to suit specific requirements.

Advanced Power Board and Flight Controller

The newly updated power board delivers unmatched reliability and redundancy, with dual industrial-grade 5V & 12V DC-DC converters powering the flight controller and sensitive electronics. The X55 V2 also incorporates the industry-standard Cube Orange Plus flight controller, equipped with temperature-compensated triple IMUs and built-in vibration dampening for superior performance.
