Airlogix is a leading developer of delivery UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) solutions for seamless and flexible cargo and logistics deliveries.
Our mission is to make drone delivery universally available and accessible, and to solve logistics problems for a wide variety of essential applications such as healthcare, search and rescue (SAR), construction, and utilities.
The Hammerhead eV20 is an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL), tilt-rotor drone built for middle-mile delivery missions. Featuring autonomous operation, the cargo UAV combines the advantages of quadcopters and fixed-wing platforms, with the ability to switch seamlessly from VTOL and hovering to highly efficient forward flight.
With a top speed of 90 km/h, the Hammerhead eV20 can carry up to 20 kg of critical cargo for distances of up to 100 km. Powered solely by batteries, the eVTOL aircraft is emissions-free and delivers flight times of up to an hour.
The platform can withstand significant gusts of wind and can be operated in costal and offshore environments.
The advanced cargo UAV includes a built-in LiDAR altimeter and an IR-Lock sensor for precision landing, as well as ADS-B for enhanced situational awareness.
A comprehensive ground control and fleet management software suite is included, turning any laptop into a convenient ground control station (GCS). Communication methods include 915 MHz radio, 3G/4G/5G cellular, and optional SATCOM.

The use of UAVs for logistics and cargo delivery offers a variety of advantages over traditional methods, opening up unique opportunities for businesses and public services alike.
Access hard-to-reach places – many places around the globe are not well-served by road or manned aviation. Drones are able to go where other methods of transport cannot, with little or no required infrastructure.
Avoid traffic – drones are ideal for urban areas with heavy traffic, providing fast, efficient and clean delivery without contributing to the problem.
Timely delivery even in emergencies – drones can be deployed quickly with minimal need for resources, providing the ability to easily and efficiently help those in need when every second counts.
Cost reduction – the use of autonomous UAVs frees up manpower and reduces downtime, leading to improved efficiency and reduced costs for businesses.
Urban & remote delivery
Drone delivery is ideal for both crowded urban environments and remote regions, solving the logistical issues of both in a rapid and cost-effective manner.
Healthcare
Our delivery drones can deliver a variety of essential medicinal and healthcare cargo, such as vaccines, blood, first aid supplies and defibrillators – faster than any ambulance and contact-free.
Search and Rescue
Our versatile electric hybrid tilt-rotor drone can navigate complex and dangerous terrain during humanitarian crises, natural disasters, conflicts and other emergencies, without the need to put first responders and other personnel at risk.
Utilities & Construction
Cargo drones can deliver to businesses, depots, construction sites, offshore vessels and platforms and a variety of other destinations within rapid timeframes, minimising downtimes and maximising profitability.
