Discover the Dutchwing DW10S-PRO: Maximum Precision, Ultimate Detail

Demanding Survey aplications

When your aerial operations demand the absolute highest standard in survey accuracy and image resolution, the Dutchwing DW10S-PRO is your definitive choice. This advanced configuration integrates the industrial Sony ILX-LR1 camera directly into our fixed-wing platform.

With a 61.0-megapixel full-frame sensor, a single flight with the DW10S-PRO captures data that would take a lower-resolution camera multiple passes to achieve. This dramatically lowers your Ground Sampling Distance (GSD) and slashes your overall flight times. Combining our secure, closed-loop DW-Pilot Software with sub-centimeter RTK/PPK workflows, the DW10S-PRO stands as the top-tier solution for large-scale engineering, corridor mapping, and high-altitude surveying where no detail can be left to chance.

⚠️ Important Configuration Note: The DW10S-PRO is delivered standard with the Sony ILX-LR1 camera body, but without a lens.

Dutch Wing DW-10 & Sony ILX-LR1

At Dutch Wing, we design for maximum operational efficiency and survey-grade precision. That is why our long-range DW-10 fixed-wing platform features seamless, custom integration with the Sony ILX-LR1, a 61-megapixel, full-frame camera purpose-built strictly for industrial UAV applications.

By eliminating the unnecessary weight of consumer camera bodies (like monitors, viewfinders, and internal batteries), the ILX-LR1 weighs just 243 grams. This ultra-lightweight architecture preserves the DW-10's signature aerodynamic endurance while carrying an uncompromised, large-format imaging sensor.

Unmatched Resolution
The Power of 61 MP StillsThe core of this payload is a massive 35mm full-frame back-illuminated Exmor R™ CMOS sensor shooting native 61.0 Megapixel images (9504 x 6336 pixels). For flexible data management, the camera supports selectable internal resolution profiles:

L (Large): 61 MP (9504 x 6336 pixels) — The industry standard for ultra-high-resolution photogrammetry.
M (Medium): 26 MP (6240 x 4160 pixels)
S (Small): 15 MP (4752 x 3168 pixels)

Why 61 MP Changes Everything (vs. Low-Res 26 MP Cameras)
Many standard mapping drones carry lower-tier 26 MP APS-C sensors. Stepping up to the DW-10 with a 61 MP full-frame setup completely transforms your commercial ROI:

1. Double the Ground Coverage per Flight Line
A higher pixel count allows the DW-10 to fly at a higher altitude while achieving the exact same Ground Sampling Distance (GSD) as a lower-resolution camera. Because the camera's visual footprint scales with altitude, one single photo from our 61 MP setup replaces multiple photos from a 26 MP camera. You can widen your flight paths, execute fewer passes, and slash your overall mission time by more than half.

2. Sub-Centimeter Accuracy & Deep Data Detail
When flying at lower inspection altitudes, the 61 MP sensor delivers unmatched sub-centimeter accuracy. It captures microscopic anomalies—such as hairline structural cracks, asset corrosion, or precise crop variations—that are completely invisible or blurred into a single pixel on a 26 MP sensor.

3. Flawless Orthomosaics and Point Clouds
With 9504 x 6336 pixels of raw data per image, photogrammetry stitching software has exponentially more pixel data points to align. This reduces processing errors, giving you sharper orthomosaics, flawlessly detailed 3D digital twins, and highly reliable point clouds.

Industrial Reliability Built for Fixed-Wing Efficiency
The ILX-LR1 doesn't just provide exceptional data; it is hardwired into the DW-10 platform for reliable workflow performance:

Power from the Airframe
Powered directly by the DW-10’s flight system, removing any risks of payload battery exhaustion mid-survey.
Mechanical Shutter Performance
Eliminates rolling-shutter distortion, ensuring crisp, geometrically perfect images at high cruise speeds.
Sony SDK Integration
Full remote control over camera settings directly through the ground station.Map faster. Collect better data. Maximize your fleet's productivity with the Dutch Wing DW-10.

Optimized for DW-10 Aerial Surveying & Mapping

Maximize Ground Coverage Per Flight Line

Broaden your field of view with a 20 mm wide-angle focal length (30 mm in 35 mm equivalent). While GSD (Ground Sampling Distance) is an important metric, total area coverage per photo is critical for efficiency. At a standard survey altitude, the 20 mm lens provides a massive footprint width of 105 meters, compared to just 45 meters from a 50 mm lens.

Drastically Reduce Flight Times and Operational Costs

Because of the wider footprint, using a 50 mm lens forces you to fly significantly tighter flight lines to maintain the required sidelap. In fact, you would need to fly more than two full missions with a 50 mm lens just to cover the exact same geographic area that the 20 mm lens captures in a single flight, maximizing the efficiency of your DW-10 platform.

Precision Photogrammetry with Edge-to-Edge Detail

Engineered with an advanced optical design featuring three specialized internal elements. It actively corrects distortion and chromatic aberration, ensuring crisp, high-contrast imagery from corner to corner, essential for accurate orthomosaic stitching and flawless point-cloud generation.

Ultra-Lightweight 'Pancake' Design

Keep the payload weight to an absolute minimum. This ultra-compact pancake lens integrates perfectly into the DW-10’s payload bay without sacrificing aerodynamic performance or adding unnecessary grams, maximizing your mission's total flight time.

Focal Length 20mm (APS-C)What it means?
This defines the lens's field of view. On an APS-C sensor (like the one in the Sony ILX-LR1), a 20mm focal length acts as a high-efficiency wide-angle lens.

The Drone Benefit:
Massive Ground Coverage. Instead of capturing a narrow strip of land, the 20mm focal length gives you a huge footprint width of 105 meters per photo at standard survey altitudes.
Why it matters:
To map an area, a drone must fly back and forth with overlapping photos. Because the 20mm lens covers a wide area, you can space your flight lines much further apart. Compared to a narrower 50mm lens (which only covers 45 meters), the 20mm lens allows the DW-10 to map the exact same area in half the time and in a single flight, saving battery, pilot hours, and operational costs.Max.

Aperture: f/2.8 What it means?
The aperture (f-number) indicates how much light the lens can let in. A lower number like f/2.8 means the lens has a very wide opening, letting in a massive amount of light.

The Drone Benefit:
Ultra-Fast Shutter Speeds. Because the lens lets in so much light, the camera sensor can capture a perfect image in a fraction of a millisecond.
Why it matters:
Motion blur is the enemy of accurate photogrammetry. Because the DW-10 is moving quickly across the sky, a slow camera shutter will result in blurry images that ruin your orthomosaics. The bright f/2.8 aperture allows the camera to use ultra-fast shutter speeds, ensuring that every pixel is sharp, crisp, and blur-free, even when flying at high cruise speeds or on overcast, low-light days.
