problems & solutions

Air Cargo


PROBLEM - UNRELIABILITY
  • Just-in-time is evolving to just-in-sequence (only hours of manufacturing components on hand)
  • B-to-B commerce breaks down when supply chains are disrupted
  • Fragile transportation networks (i.e. traffic, island chains, mountainous regions)
AFFORDABLE UTILITY
  • No compromise vehicle, purpose-built for air cargo
  • Autonomous waypoint to waypoint transport of freight
  • Lowest cost option for mid-mile air delivery
  • Reduced congestion on surface roads
  • Accelerated speed of business

Humanitarian


PROBLEM - INFRASTRUCTURE
  • Natural and man-made disasters disrupt infrastructure (bridges, roads, airports, and rail)
  • Truck deliveries affected by available routes, speed limits and weather conditions
  • Communities are isolated, cut off from essential resources (power grid, medical care, clean water)
  • Infrastructure is time consuming and expensive to replace

FLI REMOTE ACCESS
  • Remote power generation for hospitals, refugee camps, and businesses
  • Up to 300 kW continuous available
  • Ground Zero, the most desperately impacted area, can now receive rapid and critical attention with autonomous flight delivery
  • The uncertainty of infrastructure goes away; no runway, no electrical power, no problem


Firefighting


PROBLEM - WILDFIRES
  • Expensive specialized aircraft, with highly trained crews, leading to large platforms for economies of scale
  • Manned aircraft require high risk avoidance leading to higher altitudes and fewer flights
  • Spikes in asset demand occur seasonally in everchanging locations
FLI Firefighting
  • Thermal imaging to identify hot-spots
  • Unmanned terrain mapping and avoidance, allowing lower flights
  • Ground crew directly controls assets
  • Flight units can be easily transported to site, and quickly employed as needed
  • An automated flight path and schedule can be established, night watch becomes more likely to catch flare ups

Air Mobility


PROBLEM - GRIDLOCK
  • Transportation networks are not keeping pace with demand
  • Loss of productivity on the rise
  • Increasing pollution is stressing the environment
  • Urbanization - by 2040 there will be 110 Megacities, 7.1 billion people who will live in urban areas
FLI ELECTRIC ROTORCRAFT (FLIER)
  • Introduces the 3rd dimension to a traditionally 2D problem (flight)
  • Electric, five-passenger, eVTOL air vehicle that flies above the congestion
  • Designed to be affordable, safe, quiet, and environmentally responsible
  • Leaving you time for the things you love the most

Medevac


PROBLEM - LIMITED TIME
  • Medical emergencies often occur in isolated locations
  • Air medical transport is limited due to high cost and qualified personnel
  • The Golden Hour is that most critical hour after an injury occurs that has the highest chance in saving a life
FLI Medevac
  • Autonomy means help is sent as soon as communication is received; the vehicle maintains a perpetual state of readiness
  • Adverse weather, fog, smoke, and darkness have little impact on vehicle operations
  • The low cost and ease of operations enables the vehicle to be forward deployed and distributed to remote locations
