Atmospheric pressure on Titan is 1.5 bar so it could have smaller &/or slower props than on Earth. That bodes well for getting good lift & good reliability.

Is it possible to add suspension to absorb the shock during landing?

A large drone. Is the sand a similar texture as what might be found on the mission?

What's with the "rotorcraft" drivel? It's a drone. An expensive, sophisticated one, but a drone.
