Mr. Tian Yu founded AutoFlight in 2016 and is headquartered in Shanghai, China. AutoFlight is an aviation technology company specialized in the research and development of autonomous flight and electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) technology and aircraft manufacturing. AutoFlight has set up research and development facilities in Munich, Germany, in Shenzhen, China, has several manufacturing facilities across China, and has a testing and operating center in Los Angeles, California, USA. Mr. Tian Yu is also the founder of Yuneec, the predecessor of AutoFlight, which was a world leader in consumer drones and the manufacturer of e-Spyder single-seat electric ultralight and E430 two-seat electric ultralight which first flew in June 2009.

Safety and reliability is a top priority for AutoFlight and is applying interdisciplinary technologies to their aviation products including new materials, artificial intelligence, autonomous technology, sense and avoid in the air technology, multi-redundant flight control system, microelectronics, 4G and 5G telecommunication for multi-channel communication, ground radar assisted remote takeoff and landing function and many other technologies.

CarryAll V2000CG air cargo eVTOL aircraft production model
The CarryAll V2000CG is an autonomous all-electric air cargo eVTOL aircraft production model. The aircraft has a very modern innovative sleek design that is safe, clean, quiet, all-weather capable and affordable. The CarryAll looks the same as the passenger model, according to the pictures on AutoFlight's website.

The cruise speed of the air cargo aircraft is 200 km/h (124 mph) and has a range of 250 km (155 m). The aircraft has 13 propellers, 13 electric motors and is powered by battery packs. There are 10 VTOL only propellers and three pusher propellers on the aircraft. The aircraft has one canard, one high main gull-wing and has four booms where the VTOL propellers are located. In the rear of the aircraft, there are two downward vertical stabilizers.

The empty weight of the aircraft is 1,600 kg (3,527 lb), has a maximum payload weight is 400 kg (882 lb) and has a maximum takeoff weight of 2,000 kg (4,409 lb). The fuselage is made from carbon fiber composite for a high strength and low weight ratio. The aircraft has fixed skid landing gear.

The aircraft features distributed electric propulsion (DEP) using multiple propellers each powered by electric motors, to increase flight safety through redundancy. If one or more components fail, the remaining ones can still ensure a safe landing. There are also redundancies of critical components in the sub-systems of the aircraft which also provide safety through redundancy. Having multiple redundant systems on any aircraft decreases having any single point of failure. The aircraft has no moving surfaces or tilting parts when transitioning from vertical to forward flight which increases safety by reducing complexity.

Type certification development
On February 7, 2024, the company announced that the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) completed its verification testing for AutoFlight's CarryAll V2000CG uncrewed eVTOL air cargo aircraft. In March 2024, AutoFlight achieved a significant milestone when its CarryAll air cargo aircraft received a Type Certificate (TC) from the CAAC.
