Our Technology Evolution
16 Years. 100+ Iterations.
Proven in the Field.
From the first eVTOL concept (M1, 2018) to today's XFLIGHT Flight Control — our technology is proven in the field, not just the lab.
M1 · 2018
First Flight-Ready eVTOL
Designed by Serdar Soyal — the first proof that XFLIGHT's air taxi vision could take off.
M2 · 2020-2024
Patented Tilt Mechanics
Structural perfection through dozens of prototypes — resulting in our patented tilt mechanism.
M3.2 · Current
XFLIGHT Flight Control
The hardware that validated our software. Hundreds of flight hours under real mission conditions.
3 Core Innovations
Split Fuselage
First and second fuselage sections shift against each other — modular, adaptable, mechanically independent.
Rigid Pivot Frame
One common pivot axis for all drive units — eliminating individual tilt mechanisms and their failure modes.
Vectored Thrust
All motors pivot synchronously between horizontal and vertical. 100% motor utilization in every flight phase.
Meet Maggie — Our AI with a Soul
Maggie isn't a feature. She's the third member of the XFLIGHT team — with her own memory, her own personality, and one goal: to make XFLIGHT better, every day.

FPV & Extreme Flight
Where others stop,
we start.
Kitesurfers, canyons, storms, bridges — anywhere there's a challenge, XFLIGHT is there.
Our Services
What We Deliver
Bridges at night. Wind turbines in storms. Red Bull events. Our drones deliver where others can't.
Service
Infrastructure Inspection
Bridges, wind turbines, pipelines — documented with millimetre precision, even in storms and zero visibility.
