Elroy Air demonstrates eVTOL cargo system for AMC


Elroy Air, the developer of the end-to-end autonomous vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) cargo system, recently demonstrated its autonomous cargo delivery system at the Travis Air Force Base.

 

The demonstration was part of Mobility Guardian 2023, a large Air Mobility Command (AMC) full-spectrum readiness exercise. Mobility Guardian 23 focused on overcoming challenges related to distance in mobilisation, deployment, and sustainment functions in the Indo-Pacific area.

 

During the exercise, the team demonstrated several of the capabilities of the Chaparral autonomous cargo delivery system, including loading and deploying the vehicle from a C-17 aircraft, stowing and deploying the wing and tail, locating and picking up a cargo pod, autonomous taxiing, and delivering a cargo pod to the next location.
