Info
Dufour Aerospace develops efficient and sustainable aircraft for patient and passenger transport, logistics and public safety. It uses distributed electric propulsion and a hybrid module to be able to meet today's helicopter market and Advanced Air Mobility requirements. Aero3, the flagship product, can take-off and land vertically like a helicopter, but flies as fast and as energy efficient as an airplane, by virtue of its tilt-wing design. Dufour Aerospace is also developing the Aero2, an unmanned aerial vehicle based on the same aerodynamic and technical principles as Aero3.

Tilt-wing aircraft returning to Raron/VS in Switzerland. The AeroMini10, our test and validation workhorse, is taking into the Valisian skies. Thanks all the neighbours on the airport for the hospitality. #dronedelivery #Advancedairmobility #AeroMini #Raron #Wallis #dronesinswitzerland #drones Thanks Fondation The Ark for your support in this!

As well earlier than expected. Aero2 preseries aircraft in full TestFlight mode. A short video of a back transition. Aero2 will change the way we transport goods. 70% less CO2 per kg transported compared to helicopters, 10 x less cost. And most important: redundant design allows for more safety. Well done TestFlight team at Dufour Aerospace 🙏💪

One of the advantages of tiltwing aircraft is the fast transition. It takes roughly 10 seconds to go from hover to full wingborn flight. Additionally it already creates lift at the first tiltangle and during transition the power needed reduces immediately. A huge advantage in energy saving respective additional power needed in an emergency. Dufour Aerospace

Dufour Aerospace is excited to announce the renewal of our partnership with Areion UAS, a pioneering force in the U.S. drone industry and successor to Spright. Areion has purchased 40 Dufour Aero2 drones, with options for an additional 100! This partnership advances critical goods transport and logistical solutions and represents the largest civilian drone purchase. Last week at the UP.Summit, organized by UP.Partners, the Dufour Aero2 drone featuring the Areion livery, was proudly showcased. As we move closer to commercial deliveries in 2026, we’re thrilled to work with Areion to expand our U.S. footprint and showcase the incredible potential of our tilt-wing Aero2 platform. #aero2 #tiltwing #uav #drones #switzerland #droneapplications #partnership #eVTOL #transportation

„The west has shifted away from a culture of progress in recent decades and towards one of caution, worry and risk aversion! Well outspoken by Cyrus Sigari at the #UPSummit. I am very glad and proud that Dufour Aerospace is one of the companies that is adressing this problem despite the huge difficulties we face. We build automated and ultimately autonomous aerial robots that will change the way we transport goods and bring help to people.

Dufour Aerospace was at the UP.Summit this week, hosted by UP.Partners in Bentonville, Arkansas connecting with some of the world's brightest minds in transportation technology. We were proud to showcase the Dufour Aero2, our cutting-edge tilt-wing #eVTOL. Special recognition goes to our co-founder, Thomas Pfammatter, who was invited for his pioneering work in electric aircraft and his extensive experience as a rescue helicopter pilot. This is an exciting moment for Dufour, as we continue to see growing demand for our technology and its potential to transform logistics and cargo transport. #aero2 #tiltwing #uav #drones #switzerland #droneapplications #partnership #upsummit #eVTOL #transportation #dronedelivery

Looking forward to meet the mobility family at the #UPSummit and discuss future mobility with awesome speakers and future aircraft. BTW: Dufour Aerospace has its 3rd generation #Aero2 eVTOL aircraft on the display! Worth checking it out and get some insights how unmanned aircraft will change the way of transport! Feel free to reach out to me when around 🙏
