XTI Aerospace has announced a technology collaboration memorandum of understanding (MOU) with VerdeGo Aero, a developer of hybrid-electric propulsion technology for aircraft.
“XTI is seeking optimal powertrain solutions for military and civilian market opportunities within the unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) market segment,” said the company in a press statement.
“Throughout the development of its transformational TriFan 600 airplane and its derivatives, XTI has continually evaluated technologies to maximize the performance of its aircraft. In the next phase of its evaluation, XTI is excited to work with VerdeGo on the use of hybrid-electric propulsion solutions for certain planned variants that would be optimal for such a system. This collaboration will allow XTI to design these variants from the outset to fully leverage the performance and efficiency benefits enabled by hybridization. Benefiting from the significant progress VerdeGo has made towards maturing its hybrid powerplant programs over the past two years, both companies see potential synergies and customer solutions. The MOU between the companies provides a framework to collaborate on aircraft mission performance targets and related power requirements using hybrid-electric propulsion. Potential opportunities include critical military and commercial UAS logistics and cargo missions where speed, range and vertical takeoff & landing (VTOL) performance is paramount.”
