WISPR SkyScout 2+ with SkyBoss Smart Controller: Blue UAS Cleared, NDAA-Compliant Drone with RTK/PPK Accuracy

The WISPR Systems SkyScout 2+ with SkyBoss Smart Controller is an American-made, NDAA-compliant quadcopter built for professionals who need survey-grade accuracy and mission-ready reliability straight out of the box.

Powered by a CubePilot HerePro GNSS module with a u-blox ZED-F9P core processor, the SkyScout 2+ delivers real-time RTK positioning standard, with PPK capability available via WISPR Cloud Subscription.

Cleared on the DCMA Blue UAS list and approved under the Green UAS program, it enters government, public safety, and enterprise workflows with FAA Remote ID already installed and pre-configured before leaving the factory.

SkyScout 2+ Key Features and Benefits

  • Blue UAS cleared: DCMA-listed and NDAA-compliant for government and DoD procurement programs.
  • RTK positioning: CubePilot HerePro GNSS delivers centimeter-level real-time accuracy standard.
  • Hot-swap batteries: Dual 4350mAh LiPo smart batteries swap in seconds without powering down.
  • Mission resume: Low-battery RTL triggers automatically; mission continues from last waypoint after hot-swap.
  • SkyBoss controller: Ruggedized 7" 2000-nit Android 10 display with AES256 encryption and 8 km range.
  • LiDAR TOF sensors: Front, rear, and downward sensors provide collision avoidance and auto-landing.
  • TempGuard climate control: Active and passive cooling regulates components from -4°F to 122°F.
  • Terrain following: GNSS and downward LiDAR TOF sensor maintain precise altitude at all levels.
  • Remote ID built-in: FAA-compliant Remote ID module pre-installed and pre-configured at factory.
  • Battery lifecycle: Rated for 240 charge cycles at 70°F for long-term operational cost efficiency.

Designed for rapid deployment, the SkyScout 2+ goes from case to airborne in under three minutes. It carries up to 3.85 lbs. of payload, sustains approximately 30 minutes of flight time under load, and handles winds up to 50 MPH.

The SkyBoss Smart Controller — a ruggedized 7" 2000-nit MIL-STD-810-rated display running Android 10, with dedicated gimbal tilt and yaw roll wheels, video and photo triggers, and AES256-encrypted transmission up to 8 km (5 miles) on 2.4/5.8 GHz — gives operators full command authority in any field environment.

The TempGuard Dynamic Climate Control system actively regulates internal component temperatures across an operating range of -4°F to 122°F, and the S-Port Quick-Attach system enables fast payload swaps without tools.

Precision That Performs Across Every Mission Profile

When a survey crew needs centimeter-level data from a platform that fits in carry-on luggage, deploys in under three minutes, and holds up in 50 MPH winds, the SkyScout 2+ is the answer. Its CubePilot HerePro GNSS, built on the u-blox ZED-F9P chip and tracking GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, and BeiDou across L1, L2, and E5 bands, provides the positional integrity that survey and inspection work demands.

RTK fix is typically acquired in under 30 seconds after connecting to an NTRIP network, and PPK rover files are retrieved directly from the drone's USB-C port for post-processing. The SkyBoss Smart Controller extends that precision to the operator interface, delivering 1080p 30fps video transmission, IP55 weather resistance, and a hot-swappable internal battery configuration rated for 4 or more hours of continuous operation.

The Cube Orange+ flight controller running WISPR's custom ArduPilot firmware gives operators fine-grained authority over flight behavior, while the onboard Battery Management System monitors cell health, temperature, and charge state in real time. On a low-battery failsafe, the aircraft automatically returns to launch and the mission can be resumed from the last waypoint after a hot-swap, without restarting the entire operation.

What is included in the WISPR SkyScout 2+ Premium Package?

The SkyScout 2+ Premium Package includes the SkyScout 2+ aircraft, the SkyBoss Smart Controller with its hot-swappable internal battery, two WISPR 4350mAh Smart Batteries, a WISPR 110V battery charger, a pre-installed set of 18.2" x 5.9" folding propellers, landing gear, and a heavy-duty rolling transit case that can accommodate up to two full battery pairs. Both drone batteries must be within 5% charge of each other and fully installed to fly. Sensor payloads and the WISPR Cloud Subscription are sold separately.

Is the WISPR SkyScout 2+ NDAA-compliant and approved for government use?

Yes. The SkyScout 2+ is American-made, NDAA-compliant, cleared on the DCMA Blue UAS list, and approved under the Green UAS program, making it eligible for federal, DoD, and government procurement programs that require compliant unmanned aircraft systems. It also ships with a pre-installed, pre-configured FAA Remote ID module, eliminating that setup step before first flight. It is one of a limited number of platforms to hold all three compliance designations simultaneously.

What is the difference between RTK and PPK on the SkyScout 2+?

RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) is included standard and provides centimeter-level positioning in real time during flight, including live image tagging. RTK fix is typically acquired in under 30 seconds after connecting to an NTRIP network. PPK (Post-Processed Kinematic) is available as an upgrade via WISPR Cloud Subscription and applies geotag corrections during post-processing using RINEX rover files retrieved from the drone's USB-C port. Both systems use the CubePilot HerePro GNSS module built on the u-blox ZED-F9P receiver.

How does the SkyScout 2+ handle extreme temperatures?

The TempGuard Dynamic Climate Control system uses a combination of active fans and passive thermal management to regulate internal component temperatures across an operating range of -4°F to 122°F. Smart fan speed adjusts automatically based on real-time sensor feedback, protecting the flight controller, GNSS module, and electronics from thermal stress. This allows the SkyScout 2+ to operate in desert heat, cold-weather environments, and demanding industrial sites without platform substitution.

What payloads are compatible with the SkyScout 2+?

The SkyScout 2+ supports a broad range of professional payloads via its S-Port Quick-Attach system, including the Sony LR1 (formerly ILX-LR1) 61MP full-frame camera, WISPR 24MP Mapper, Gremsy Vio, Gremsy Zio, RESEPI Lite M2X LiDAR, RESEPI Livox LiDAR, RESEPI Ultra Lite (XT-32) LiDAR, GeoCue TrueView LiDAR, GeoCue T1 LiDAR, YellowScan Mapper+ LiDAR, YellowScan Surveyor Ultra LiDAR, and a Methane Detector. LiDAR payloads use a dedicated extra GNSS antenna mount on the starboard side of the airframe. All payloads are sold separately.

How does the low-battery failsafe work, and can I resume a mission after swapping batteries?

When the SkyScout 2+ detects a low-battery condition, it automatically initiates a Return to Launch sequence. After hot-swapping the batteries on the ground, the operator can press the play button in WISPR Ground Control, which prompts the drone to take off and fly directly to the last waypoint to resume the mission from where it left off. The battery failsafe threshold is dynamically calculated based on the drone's distance from the launch point, current environment, and speed, with approximately 13% battery typically targeted for landing initiation.

How far can the SkyBoss Smart Controller communicate with the drone?

The SkyBoss Smart Controller has a transmission range of up to 8 km (5 miles) in open space and operates on 2.4/5.8 GHz frequencies with automatic channel hopping across 16 channels for uninterrupted band switching. All transmissions are secured via AES256 hardware-level encryption. The controller carries an IP55 weather resistance rating and has passed MIL-STD-810 drop testing, and its hot-swappable internal battery configuration supports 4 or more hours of continuous operation.
