Maple Aviation is developing the first scalable autonomous eVTOL drone fleet for mid-mile, heavy-payload transport that is both extremely energy-efficient and emission-free. With payload capacities from 10 kg to 200 kg over 120 km, our drones require landing pads as small as 3×3 m—making them dramatically more practical and cost-effective than competitors. Targeting the booming drone cargo market across medical, pharma, intralogistics, and agriculture, Maple Aviation is positioned to lead the next generation of sustainable air cargo delivery.
