Indonesian Aerospace hasnt published it in their website, but we have specs from BRIN as previously this project is under BRIN (Indonesia Gov Research Agency).

The UAV seen in the video is only 1:1 model scale for testing purposes, not a prototype.

There is a difference on the blade of the propeller from previous photo, previously it used two blade propeller, now it used three blade propeller.

Taxi Test

Interesting photo on November 16, MALE UAV (Black Eagle) conducts taxi test (slow speed) at Husein Sastranegara airfield. Taxi tests are typically starting with evaluations of ground-handling qualities at slow & medium speeds before moving on to high-speed tests.
