SkyLifter aircraft share a common arrangement of a gas-filled lenticular-shaped aerostat (enabling buoyancy to float) and an underslung pod. The pod position helps with stability and incorporates habitable areas as well as the main aircraft systems for power, control and communication. The aircraft feature propellers for thrust and, if desired, the aircraft may float endlessly without power. Therefore, with minimal cost, the flight endurance is exceptional. The design cleverly integrates already proven systems with SkyLifter’s own innovations. We have been careful to keep things as simple as possible without compromising performance and safety. The simplicity of the design arrangement may seem obvious, but it has taken many years of hard work and investment to create the overall package. Our intention is to enable practical and cost-effective turnkey solutions for various markets.
