Pterodynamics has seen great success in upscaling the benefits of the eVOTL aircraft.
Pterodynamics has been making waves in the electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft market with its innovative Transwing platform. And now, the company has released fresh video footage of its latest prototype. The video showcases a larger-scale version of the remarkable dihedral folding wing system that powers the Transwing.
The company claims that its unique and patented design looks just like a plane in forward flight, with props distributed along its wings. But when it's time to land, the wings fold back. This allows the Transwing to take off and land like a multicopter drone, but then cruise efficiently in forward flight supported by wing lift.The latest prototype is larger in scale and promises to be one of the most efficient eVTOL designs around.
