Introducing the VT-Naut: the best of the performance of a fixed-wing aircraft, with vertical takeoff. Land anywhere, even water.

The VT-Naut VTOSL (Vertical Takeoff and Short Landing) fixed-wing drone, developed by Aeromao, is an innovative aerial solution designed for diverse applications, including high-precision mapping, surveying, inspection, scouting, observation, and agriculture, covering large areas per flight. As the world's first vertical takeoff fixed-wing drone capable of water landings, it is ideal for shipboard or coastal operations. With a clean aerodynamic design, the lightweight VT-Naut eliminates the need for tilt mechanisms, extra booms, additional motors for vertical flight, and unnecessary weight. Boasting features such as a 30km long-range telemetry link, up to 90 minutes of flight endurance, and a compact, indestructible body design, the VT-Naut provides a cost-effective alternative to full VTOL platforms, catering to users requiring extensive surveying capabilities over vast areas. Aeromao positions the VT-Naut as a resilient, modular, and future-proof solution, revolutionizing the landscape of large-area surveying.
