Novel distance VTOL aircraft
Patented aircraft design that is truly a breakthrough for vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft, needed to make everything from drone delivery to air taxis possible with profound military applications as well. Given any aircraft footprint size and payload requirements, our Transwing aircraft can fly at least twice as far as any other VTOL design.

The key breakthrough is that our aircraft transitions from a pure rotowing configuration for taking off and landing into a pure fixed wing configuration for forward flight, yielding many critical advantages:
-Helicopter-like maneuverability
-Efficient distance flight permitting lift/drag ratios >20
-Smooth transition between VTOL and forward flight
-Extremely compact during VTOL and on ground
-Payload capacities >40% of maximum takeoff weight
-Electric or wet fuel powered
-No need for superfluous motors causing unnecessary weight or drag
-Fuselage stays parallel to the ground
-Vehicles can range in size from <5 lbs to >75,000 lbs.
