Hili Subscale Takes Flight
We are proud to announce a major milestone in the development of our hybrid VTOL UAV, Hili. Our subscale version of Hili has successfully completed its maiden flight, marking a significant step forward in our journey to redefining advanced air mobility in the UAE and beyond.
The Hili subscale serves as a critical platform for validating our design, flight dynamics, and operational capabilities before scaling up to the full-sized aircraft. The successful first flight of the subscale validates our engineering approach and accelerates our timeline for bringing this transformative technology to market.
“This is not just a technical accomplishment – it’s a reflection of the tireless effort, innovation, and collaboration of our exceptional team. It’s a celebration of the UAE’s commitment to advancing technology and sustainability, and a testament to what we can achieve when we work together”, said Rashid Almanai, CEO of LODD.
Hili is a cornerstone of LODD’s mission to address critical logistics challenges, offering a sustainable, efficient and adaptable solution for cargo transportation in the region. As we progress toward the launch of our full-sized prototype, LODD remains focus on delivering innovative UAV solutions that meet the evolving needs of industries, governments and communities.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to achieve new milestones in the development of Hili. For more information and updates on our journey, follow us on LinkedIn at LODD Autonomous.
