FYFT S-series unmanned blimp

FYFT S-series unmanned blimps are Chinese UAVs developed by Qingdao Co., Ltd. Fei-Yu (meaning Flying Universe) Aviation Science and Technology Co., Ltd. (FYFT, 青岛飞宇有限公司), and these unmanned blimps are named after their respective length. For example: if an S1 series blimp is 11 meter long, then it is named S1-1100, because 11 meter is equal to 1100 centimeters. S-series UAV is intended for aerial survey / photography / cinematography, with S stands for Survey.
