The HEXA Drone concept is a piece of [firefighting equipment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vita-bladeless) that would enable professionals to take swift action in the fight against the flames by targeting the source of the problem.

The drone would be able to fly overhead to regions where humans simply can't get and douse flames in liquid to put them out in a quick manner. The unit highlights a specially designed construction achieved using a heat-resistant metal case to ensure that it could withstand encounters with high heat levels.

The HEXA Drone concept is rounded out with a magnetic design that would enable additional units to be added tighter in a honeycomb manner to drastically enhance the amount of power that's possible when fighting flames.
