Founded in 2024 by CEO Shivanshu Tank, the company is in the business of designing and manufacturing passenger electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft for emergency medical services in the advanced air mobility (AAM) industry. The company also makes fixed-wing uncrewed air vehicles (UAVs). The company wants to revolutionize aerial emergency medical service for both urban and rural areas by making rescuing people safer and more economical than using helicopters.

eVTOL Air Ambulance passenger eVTOL aircraft (concept design)
The eVTOL Air Ambulance is an emergency medical service passenger eVTOL and is one of the first concept designs of an eVTOL aircraft made by the company. The multicopter has the capability to carry rescue crew and medical equipment and supplies to automobile accidents and other emergencies in urban and rural areas.

The aircraft holds multiple people including paramedics, patients and pilots. The aircraft has six propellers, six electric motors and is powered by battery packs. The aircraft has one high wing, one conventional tail and has fixed skid landing gear. The fuselage is made from carbon fiber composite to give the aircraft a high strength to low weight ratio.

Specifications:

  • Aircraft type: Emergency medical service passenger eVTOL aircraft (concept design)
  • Piloting: 1 pilot
  • Capacity: At least 1 paramedic, 1 patient and their medical gear. Can possibly hold more people.
  • Cruise speed: Unknown
  • Propellers: 6 propellers
  • Electric motors: 6 electric motors
  • Power source: Battery packs
  • Fuselage: Carbon fiber composite
  • Windows: Standard general aviation windows
  • Wings: 1 main high wing
  • Tail: 1 conventional tail
  • Landing gear: Fixed skid landing gear
  • Safety features: Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP) uses multiple propellers or electric ducted fans, each powered by electric motors, to increase 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 providing safety through redundancy. Having multiple redundant systems on any aircraft decreases having any single point of failure.
