“The net itself measures 3.5 by 3.5 meters, with an effective range of up to 25 meters.”

Ptashka Systems make a reusable one. Quite a bit more expensive but the net cartridges themselves are less than half the price of Tenet's one-use launcher. Same net size too.

Yep, that one. I saw it on their telegram first, they make a similar system for quads too.

edit: commercial quads and fpvs both have systems, here's a link to their product spreadsheet if you're curious about specs and pricing
