Aircraft manufacturer Natilus introduced an aircraft with an offset wing and unmanned control. It is assumed that he will be able to have a greater carrying capacity in comparison with similar devices.

The uniqueness of the drone is that it is equipped with a body with an offset wing. This allows the transported object to be placed in a certain way: the payload parameters will be 60% higher than traditional aircraft of similar sizes.

The developers also thought about the amount of spent fuel that will be emitted for every 0.4 kg. This figure will be reduced by 50%.

It is noted that modern aircraft are assembled using traditional schemes, which can be conditionally designated as the base and the wing. The scheme of the developed drone suggests that its fuselage will flow into a standard wing due to the existing transitions.

The new unmanned aircraft is designed to be controlled by remote specialists.

According to the company, it will be used to deliver parcels within the United States, the weight of which will not exceed 200 kg. And larger versions with large payload characteristics allow you to make transcontinental flights.

The timing of the release of new drones on the mass market is not exactly announced. Presumably, it will be the end of 2025.

You can follow the latest in the aviation and automotive industry through specialized magazines that are displayed on the OXO website in the "Literature" section. You can also buy highly specialized editions of different years of release.
