Fatbug is the perfect combination of helicopter and drone. The muscles of proven lifting technology of helicopters with the modern digital possibilities of a drone. And all that, powered by the clean energy of the future of flight; hydrogen.
Can it be done better? With a history in transportation, we thought many helicopter flights could be done better. Combining the smart technologies available with the well established mechanics of helicopter flight transportation can be better. Better as in; cheaper, faster, safer, cleaner and with a higher deployment rate. Curious?
Tested and trusted
Helicopters have been around for decades by now. The technology to lift large weights is tested and proven time and again. Many aspects of rotor flight are known and tested to the limits. Energy efficiency, all forces that a aircraft undergoes, limits due to nature and when they occur; all this information is known. We just use it to make a better solution. That is why our basis is a helicopter.
The beauty of the brains
Computers have capabilities that are still expanding. While routine tasks already can be done better by computers, with AI they are even becoming better in sophisticated jobs. With sensors for vision, infrared, gps, speed, distance and many others, humanless aircraft can be better suited for certain jobs than men. And without a person in the abord, it is much safer and cheaper too.
Clean as nature
Fuel cell technology is often mentioned as the fuel for future aviation. A power train based on hydrogen is not only cleaner, it is also more silent. No vibrations to create sound or interfere with onboard electronicsAnd the fuel can be made on location, virtually anywhere.
About us
We are a team of technology enthusiasts. Passionate about making the world a better place by the means we have. Coming from different backgrounds we all have a broad interest. We like discussing basically anything and are always interested in new things. And at the end of the day we are friends, husbands and fathers.
Potential Use
Difficult logistics
Moving over hills is easier by air. On time crossing steep rims; that is a thing.
Our drone can be a skyhook. Present even during bad weather, just doing the job.
If your building is tall, we just rise to your heigth. No groud support needed at the base.
Fire Fighting
Firefighting with drones is faster and safer. 24/7, routine tasks en computer controlled is where we excel.
Replenishments
Serving offshore location is like driving a delivery van. Back and forth, not a problem
Humanitarian jobs
Having a airport or not, does not matter for us. We provide what you need by air.
Inhospitable terrain
Harsh conditions are different from above. And we are in and out in minutes.
Emergencies
We fly 24/7. Serving blood or even operation rooms for remote surgery.
Support aircraft
Through air we support your operations fast, safe and secure. Whether your needs are technical or eatable; we got your back.
