Exhibition Highlights | Join us for a recap of Weihang’s “technological prowess” moments at the 7th China International Unmanned Aircraft and Unmanned Systems Expo!

From June 25 to 27, the National Convention Center, located adjacent to the Bird’s Nest, successfully hosted… 2026 International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Applications and Counter-UAS Technologies, together with the 7th China International UAV and Unmanned Systems Expo The exhibits span six major sectors—drone applications, low‑altitude defense and security, core components, general aviation, unmanned systems, and intelligent emergency‑response equipment—highlighting the latest breakthroughs in the unmanned systems industry. As a leader in the application of electric ducted‑fan propulsion technology, Weihang Technology Ducted-fan tethered flight platform “Ao Qin” and “Ao Run” Becoming the highlight of the exhibition, its unique technological approach drew a large number of industry professionals and experts to stop by and engage in discussions.

During the exhibition, the issue that most concerns visitors is The Advantages of Electric Ducted-Fan Technology in the Low-Altitude UAV Field According to the staff, compared with conventional rotor-based designs, ducted-fan technology significantly enhances aerodynamic efficiency and the thrust-to-weight ratio, enabling ducted fans—under the same size constraints—to achieve performance comparable to that of rotors. 5–10 times Its payload capacity, combined with the ducted‑fan system’s inherent physical shielding, significantly enhances operational safety in complex urban environments while effectively reducing noise. Consequently, in urban applications, upgrading flight platforms to ducted‑propulsion systems has become an inevitable trend for meeting increasingly stringent safety standards.

This time's exhibitor “Ao Qin” and “Ao Run” It is a product that perfectly showcases the advantages of ducted fan technology in urban emergency firefighting: the 8‑ducted‑fan drone. “Ao Qin” Achieving a takeoff weight while maintaining a compact size. 900 kilograms , payload 500 kilograms , can be carried 65 millimeters The caliber hose at a height of one hundred meters exceeds 30L/s High‑flow, long‑duration continuous water jet fire suppression with an effective spray range exceeding 50 meters , it possesses main firefighting capabilities comparable to those of conventional aerial ladder fire trucks, while achieving superior rescue efficiency. As for 100 meters The aforementioned supertall buildings, “Ao Qin” It can be combined with a simple auxiliary device to enable high‑flow water jetting for fire suppression using DN65‑diameter hoses, achieving full‑height coverage and addressing the global challenge of fires in high‑rise and super‑tall buildings.

Today, public discourse on the low‑altitude economy often remains confined to airspace liberalization and policy incentives, whereas technological advancements at the equipment level are the fundamental driving force behind the industry’s true path to large‑scale deployment. From the focal points of trade show attendees and the media, to… Ao Qin Its outstanding performance in real-world scenarios demonstrates that ducted-fan technology is delivering tangible payload capacity, safety, and low noise—addressing the most pressing engineering constraints of urban low‑altitude flight and emergency firefighting: it must not only take to the skies, but do so safely and quietly, while also maintaining high efficiency and robust combat capability. Weihang Technology I hope to contribute, in my own way, to shaping the technological vision of next-generation urban low-altitude aircraft.
