Development of X-BAT is accelerating, including the use of a thrust vectoring nozzle from an experimental F-16 that was ...
The future of air combat is starting to look a lot more like something pulled from a design lab that refuses to follow the ...
What this means is that the Valo took off vertically, switched to an aircraft-like mode of operation, and then back to ...
VTOL drones may be versatile, but the weight and aerodynamic drag of their extra hardware results in a shorter range than that of their fixed-wing-only counterparts. That's where the FLARES system ...
VTOL (vertical take-off and landing) drones are a dime a dozen nowadays, so there’s no shortage of designs to choose from. But this particular twin-rotor one from HG Robotics looks a bit different ...
For VTOL and hover operations, the drone's top and bottom bodywork opens up in a series of slats, exposing a greater percentage of the rotors' swept area to airflow and deriving maximum lift. Then, as ...
PERTH, Wa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ace VTOL, the Australian eVTOL company revolutionizing urban air mobility, announces a groundbreaking $250M order for its flagship personal eVTOL aircraft, the GT ...
A NATO ally has begun operating a vertical takeoff and landing drone engineered to maintain flight and complete missions even ...
Sikorsky has already shown it can make a damn good chopper. Now it’s ready to prove it can make a fleet of futuristic hybrid rotorcraft, too. The American aircraft manufacturer, helmed by aviation ...
There are lots of acronyms for electric aviation, but eVTOL has stood the test of time for 15 years. In August 2014, NASA unveiled its GL-10 "Greased Lightning" vectored-thrust eVTOL demonstrator with ...
