The Hywings H-25 is a long-range fixed-wing UAV platform designed for zero-emissions cargo delivery applications. Powered by our unique Aeropak hydrogen propulsion nacelles, the H-25 can carry up to 5kg of cargo as standard.
The Aeropak nacelles can also be stacked to form a redundant distributed propulsion system, and allow the Hywings cargo UAV platform to be scaled up for custom solutions that can carry up to 500 kg.
Aeropak nacelles are also used to power Element One, a long-range hydrogen-electric concept aircraft designed for future cargo delivery and passenger transit requirements.
Element One is a 2018 concept design by H3 Dynamics of a zero-emission, long-range hydrogen-electric aircraft powered by a unique and patent pending distributed hydrogen-electric propulsion configuration.
