Together with our partners, we are proud to introduce our advanced propulsion technology, achieving remarkable efficiency at 200 g/kWh or better.
Larger rotors offer improved lift-to-power ratios, enhancing flight efficiency. This is why the larger-diameter rotor of the (blue) is the most efficient design compared to helicopters with smaller rotor diameters (white) and eVTOLs featuring six or more, even smaller propellers (black), which represent the least energy-efficient concept.
system operates in an eco-friendly manner, requiring only about 10% of the resources — fuel, manpower, infrastructure, maintenance, and training — versus comparable helicopters. This guarantees efficient and sustainable operations throughout the entire system.
Use of lightweight materials and advanced production methods: uses advanced lightweight materials to minimize weight and fuel consumption, achieving a payload-to-empty-weight ratio near 1:1 and surpassing aviation benchmarks.
simplifies ground handling — no extra gear, infrastructure, or risky hovering required. Just roll it out, refuel, and prep for take-off with a compact 2–3-person crew.
commits to net-zero via climate-friendly technology.
The company’s remaining emissions are being offset 100 % – in partnership with certified Eden Reforestation Projects and others. So far, “we” have planted nearly 500 trees.
How we protect the environment:
Advanced Technology: Together with our partners we develop a more efficient engine technology that reaches an efficiency better than 200 g/kWh.
SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel): ALPHA-COPTER uses of SAF. Sustainable Aviation Fuel is the recognized standard for aviation for a sustainable future and lowers CO2 emissions by up to 75 %.
Best efficiency: ALPHA-COPTER’s overall efficiency is approximately 80 % better than comparable helicopters. ALPHA-COPTER can fly with 40 kg/h vs 200 kg/h for comparable helicopters.
Understanding physics: Larger rotor areas relative to weight reduces disk loading, which reduces the power needed to generate that lift. That’s why bigger-diameter ALPHA-COPTER (blue) is a more efficient design than a helicopter (grey) with smaller rotor diameter, and why eVTOLs (black) with many smaller propellers are even less energy-efficient than helicopters.
small footprint of ALPHA-COPTER: Eco-friendly operation across the whole system with lean personnel and logistics; ALPHA-COPTER requires only 10 % of the resources (fuel – manpower – infrastructure – maintenance – training) of comparable helicopters.
lightweight materials: Use of lightweight materials and advanced production methods: ALPHA-COPTER uses advanced lightweight materials to minimize weight and fuel consumption, achieving a payload-to-empty-weight ratio near 1:1 and surpassing aviation benchmarks.
Simple ground handling: ALPHA‑COPTER simplifies ground handling — no extra gear, infrastructure, or risky hovering required. Just roll it out, refuel, and prep for take-off with a compact 2–3-person crew.
Net-zero commitment: ALPHA-COPTER commits to net-zero via climate-friendly technology. The company’s remaining emissions are being offset 100 % – in partnership with certified Eden Reforestation Projects and others. So far, “we” have planted more than 500 trees.
