Aerial Ignition Dispenser
Red Dragon
Engineered for high-performance aerial ignition, the Red Dragon features a microprocessor-controlled feed system managed via a tethered remote. Operators can adjust dispensing speeds—ranging from 25 to 175 spheres per minute—independently of any external factors. This ensures consistent, accurate coverage and the ability to adapt to changing landscapes with the turn of a dial.
About the Red Dragon
The Red Dragon sets a new industry standard for reliability and productivity in aerial ignition. Engineered with a lightweight, compact frame, this Plastic Sphere Dispenser (PSD) maximizes internal aircraft space while offering an unmatched hopper capacity for extended missions. Its high-performance design focuses on operational uptime, combining a low-maintenance, “maintenance-free” architecture with a robust safety suite, including a quick-purge system and a dedicated back-up battery for continuous on-board fire protection.
Operational control is managed via a user-friendly tethered remote, allowing for instant, “on-the-fly” adjustments without the mechanical limitations of legacy hardware. Operators can toggle between seven distinct drop rates—ranging from 25 to 175 eggs per minute—to achieve the exact concentration required for the terrain below. Unlike older systems that were prone to jamming during speed transitions, the Red Dragon utilizes fixed-displacement pumps to ensure every sphere receives the precise amount of glycol regardless of the selected dispense rate.
To ensure seamless field performance, the Red Dragon is equipped with a microprocessor-controlled motor and intelligent feed gates. This system virtually eliminates downtime through automatic jam detection and clearing—a critical advancement for high-stakes burn operations. Additional professional-grade features, such as a resettable sphere counter, easy-access drain valves, and a removable base for universal helicopter installation, make it the most versatile and efficient ignition tool on the market.
