The WingtraRAY Nose Cone is a replacement aircraft component that houses the forward-facing radar sensor used by the WingtraRAY obstacle-avoidance system. Wingtra's radar-based sensing system includes an emitter and receiver that use electromagnetic waves to detect static objects during cruise flight. The nose cone is part of the WingtraRAY airframe and is identified as a separate aircraft component in Wingtra's official quick-start documentation.
Designed for WingtraRAY survey and mapping operations, the nose cone supports the aircraft's radar-based obstacle detection system when obstacle avoidance is enabled. Wingtra states that the system can detect certain static objects such as buildings, cranes, towers, and terrain and can trigger an avoidance and return-to-home maneuver. Obstacle avoidance is an additional safety layer and does not guarantee detection or avoidance of every obstacle.
