CycloTech’s 360° Thrust Vectoring System stands at the forefront of a eVTOL propulsion revolution.

CycloTech's Innovative 360° Thrust Vectoring Technology.

CycloTech alternatives to the traditional propeller, pitch-controllable rotor, or ducted fan for generating thrust is specifically engineered for the eVTOL (electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing) market. There innovative 360° Thrust Vectoring System, drawing upon the cyclogyro principle, facilitates full 360° thrust vectoring. This attribute not only promises to redefine maneuverability within aircraft design but also significantly enhances the adaptability and efficiency of eVTOL (Electric vertical take-off and landing) UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) and urban air mobility solutions.
