Sikorsky and Lockheed Martin’s decision to build a hybrid tilt-wing technology demonstrator is a significant step forward for eVTOL aircraft. We are in a unique position to say this, as Dufour ...

The combination of a tilt-wing (for improved aerodynamics) design with hybrid propulsion could be the winning formula for rugged aircraft that can handle challenging missions, with no emissions. Back ...

Lockheed Martin’s (NYSE:LMT) Sikorsky unit on Tuesday announced a plan to build a hybrid-electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft whose wings tilt at different stages of a flight. The maker of ...

Lockheed Martin’s Sikorsky unit will build new hybrid, tilt-wing aircraft, the company announced this week. The hybrid-electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft will feature wings that tilt at ...

Aircraft capable of Vertical Takeoff and Landing, or VTOL, have always captivated aviation enthusiasts with their strangeness and militaries with their versatility. However, the fact that their ...

Hybrid-electric aircraft developer Dufour Aerospace is aiming its proposed vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft at pre-existing helicopter markets, hoping to leave competitors behind with a ...

Thrust vectoring systems for drone-style VTOL aircraft are a dime a dozen at the moment. But all the designs I've seen share one thing in common; computers decide which way their propulsion systems ...

Dufour Aerospace published specification details on the Aero3, its flagship product. The Aero3 is a VTOL tilt-wing aircraft that will combine exceptional space, load and range for various ...

There are a variety of possible motor configurations to choose from when building a fixed-wing VTOL drone, but few take the twin-motor tilt-rotor approach used by the V-22 Osprey. However, it remains ...

Transcend Air's ground bound scale model test rig consists of an in-house fabricated boom, a one-fifth Vy400 scale model and a 2006 Toyota Sequoia SUV. Transcend Air plans to launch production of its ...

Elroy Air's Chaparral C1 VTOL hefts up to 500 lb (227kg). And should you be wondering, dead-lifting refers to lifting a load straight up from the ground, using nothing but the thrust from the motors.
