MC-15 is built on the K8 Power Platform
The MC-15 cleaning drone takes the K8 industrial hexacopter as its flight base and adds a 100 m-class cleaning system. Same K8 platform used as a standalone, plus cleaning-specific payloads on top.
Compact Industrial Cleaning Built on K8
A 6-axis industrial cleaning drone for buildings up to 100 m. Built on the proven K8 power platform, paired with a 20 MPa water-tethered cleaning system, RTK positioning, millimeter-wave radar, and a 4G IoT module for network-based operation identification.
Inherits K8 Power Platform DNA
Three core capabilities that come standard with the K8 base platform — unchanged when MC-15 is configured.
Lightest of the K Family
15 kg rated payload on a 1783 mm wheelbase. The smallest, most agile K platform — purpose-built for portable single-operator cleaning missions and rapid field deployment.
Broadest Battery Compatibility
12S 22–36 Ah standard — works with the widest range of off-the-shelf smart batteries. Lower cell count, lower cost per cycle, easier field charging between jobs.
Compact Fold, 100 KV Motor
30-inch folding propellers driven by K8 motors at 100 KV. Lower per-axis thrust (5–7 kg) for efficient cruise — ideal for carrying cleaning payloads and sensors without over-propulsion.
Drone Core Features
Five core capabilities that ship standard with the MC-15, from positioning to network compliance.
High-Precision Helical RTK Antenna
Standard high-precision helical RTK antenna. Single-point accuracy 1.5 m plane, RTK accuracy 0.8 cm + 1 ppm.
Millimeter-Wave Radar Auto-Obstacle
Auto-detects curtain walls, steel structures, and obstacles. Safe and reliable close-up cleaning operations.
DC / Swing Nozzle (Optional)
Choose between straight-jet nozzle for spot cleaning or swing nozzle for wide coverage. Optional, configured per job.
720P Waterproof Camera + E-Gimbal
Live monitoring of cleaning progress. Electronic gimbal keeps the frame stable in wind and during fast passes.
Integrated 4G Data Upload Module
Built-in 4G module for network-based operation identification, ready for managed airspace operations.
Water-Tethered Core Operating System
All-in-one water-tethered rig with stainless-steel body, swivel wheels, and intelligent chemical mixing. Built for round-the-clock continuous operation.
Stainless-Steel Body
Corrosion-resistant, acid- and alkali-resistant, anti-aging. Integrated custom-built chassis designed for outdoor all-weather deployment.
Smart Chemical Mixing
One-button switching between clean water and detergent. Auto-mix ratio for consistent cleaning quality.
Tethered Power System
Unlimited endurance. All-weather continuous operation via high-voltage tethered supply — 380 V input stepped up to 1000 V at the drone.
Built-in Swivel Wheels
Move the rig freely across the site. Quick positioning between buildings, no manual lifting required.
120–200 m Cable
Custom cable length to match the job. Reach the top of a 100 m building with slack for safe maneuvering around the structure.
Body Design Highlights
Three field-tested design choices that keep MC-15 fast to deploy and easy to maintain.
Shell Quick-Release Buckles
Snap-off shell for fast maintenance. Replace damaged panels or swap a fresh color in minutes, no tools required.
Patented Folding Mechanism
One-person fold in under a minute. Compact transport footprint fits a standard van, ready for the next site.
Landing Gear Quick Release
Tool-free landing-gear swap. Adapts to rough ground, sand, or soft surfaces without disassembly.
