UAV Epsilon 1 model is designed for use in the civil sphere, in particular, the device can be used for needs of cartography, applied for special search operations, operated to control the fire environment, etc.

One of the main advantages of UAV Epsilon 1 compared with other means of the air type are small dimensions, in particular in its length in centimeters 38, wing sweep drone is 48 centimeters while. As the weight of the device is less than 450 grams. Nevertheless, this factor to some extent makes it difficult to operate the drone in a strong wind, which creates a problem rather than an advantage, especially as the UAV is designed for use in the civil sphere.

Due to the relatively light construction means unmanned aircraft launch drone Epsilon 1 is done by muscle power, while the landing is achieved by gliding on the landing surface.

Powerplant UAV the Epsilon 1 represented by one electric motor, which is being located at the rear of the device is able to disperse the air means to the maximum airspeed in 70 km \ h. However, due to the application of an electric power plant, the autonomous flight regime of an unmanned air means limited only 6 minutes, which is inefficient.
