Stinger Vision FPV

Product Description

The Stinger Vision FPV is ModalAI's ready-to-fly, Blue UAS Cleared and NDAA-compliant FPV drone built for defense, government and enterprise missions. Powered by VOXL 2 Mini — ModalAI's U.S.-made autonomy compute platform — Stinger Vision delivers AI-enabled FPV flight with onboard computer vision, GPS-denied navigation and long-range encrypted video streaming out of the box. It is one of the only American-made FPV drones on the Blue UAS Cleared List.

Stinger Vision ships operationally ready, with AI-assisted flight modes enabled by the onboard VOXL 2 Mini and VOXL SDK, significantly reducing pilot training burden. MVX — ModalAI's U.S.-made FPV streaming system, comprising the VRX ground unit and VTX air unit — delivers long-range, low-latency encrypted HD video to any HDMI-based FPV goggle or display. From unboxing to airborne in under 60 seconds when batteries are pre-charged.
