[citation needed] The Russian word eleron (Элерон) means aileron.
The Eleron-3 was originally aimed at the civilian sector, and can be used to survey things such as gas pipelines and power lines, or during search-and-rescue missions.
[4][1][5] The Eleron-3 has been shot down during the invasion of Ukraine by electronic warfare devices such as the EDM4S.
The Eleron-3SW model has been significantly improved over the original; in addition to better flight performance, it offers reduced noise and improved climb performance, reduced dimensions when folded for transport and a longer maximum flight duration.
[citation needed] The ground radio station can control up to two drones simultaneously.
