UrbanAero has established an early lead in developing a compact VTOL vehicle with no exposed rotors that is tailored to meet FAA requirements for powered lift vehicles and also capable of flying and operating inside complex urban and natural environments.
With over 35 years of experience in aerospace research and development, Dr. Yoeli has assembled a world-class team, which works with him to realize his vision for developing one of the last areas of aviation remaining to be pioneered: “Rotorless” Vertical Take-Off & Landing aircraft.
Mission Statement
To create, manufacture and market a family of VTOL, multi-mission, utility aircraft known as Fancraft:tm: that are capable of operating safely in complex urban and natural environments.
Vision
UrbanAero's long-range vision is to become the world leader in intra-urban aviation and to develop, manufacture and market a family of revolutionary, FAA certifiable and military urban aerial aircraft. The current focus of the company is the AirMule Unmanned Cargo Resupply and CasEvac aircraft for military use. Additionally, manned Fancraft variants (Centaur and X-Hawk are in development).
It is anticipated the initial implementation for civilian and manned Fancraft will be mainly for urban rescue and medical evacuation. The design, however, allows for tailor-made modifications that adapt the aircraft to an unlimited variety of tasks. Examples include utility work (i.e. power line maintenance or bridge inspection), civil policing and intra-urban or ship-to-shore taxi service, to name just a few.
Technology
Of 49 U.S. and worldwide patents that have been applied for, 36 have already been granted. UrbanAero is continuously improving and updating patents and strengthening its IP assets. UrbanAero’s Fancraft designs represent the aggregation and integration of cutting edge technologies that include highly modified ducted fans, controls, stability systems, fly-by-wire technology, advanced composites and a low acoustic signature. These proprietary technologies represent a significant barrier to entry for competing companies.
 Partnerships

UrbanAero is in search of partners who are either capable of supplying components, or of assisting in lobbying for, manufacturing, and marketing the final product.
Currently, UrbanAero is in discussions with leading aerospace companies concerning terms of cooperation for strategic partnerships.
