NEOPTERA AERO

Neoptera Aero is a British and French company, based in Bristol (England) and Toulouse (France). Having supplied consultancy services to the aerospace industry since 2001, Neoptera has been developing since 2017 an electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft thanks to a seasoned team of aeronautical professionals and advisors with experience in Commercial Aircraft and Helicopter Design (Airbus, Leonardo, Latecoere). Our aircraft has distributed electric propulsion along a tandem w... ing configuration and is capable of transporting up to 5 passengers or 500kg of payload. The eOpter concept offers the versatility of helicopters in vertical flight (ability to operate with minimal ground infrastructures), the efficiency of an aircraft in horizontal flight and promises to improve safety in the air and on the ground and reduced acquisition and operating costs. Piloted at first, the aircraft will be ready for future autonomous flight. We work closely with NASA, Bristol UWE, ISAE-SUPAERO, the Aerospace Valley as well as a number of industrial partners on the development of key technological bricks.More
