Avy is a fixed-wing drone. Both a drone and an airplane, it combines the best of both worlds. It flies beyond visual line of sight 70+ km and it carries a payload up to 1.5 kg.
Whether you need an eye in the sky, map terrains or transport cooled medical cargo, Avy is ready for all your applications.
Avy is a fixed-wing drone. It’s agile like a drone, capable of vertically taking off and landing from any surface. It’s efficient like a plane and relies on its wings when airborne, enabling it to fly far Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) without having to recharge.
With this blend of features, Avy gives you fast, easy and safe access to places that are remote and hard-to-reach.
The electric long-range drone is 100% emission-free and implemented at a fraction of the cost of a helicopter or a plane.
Remember the Thunderbirds? As we foresaw so many potential applications for Avy, and because we are a little nerdy, the Thunderbird 2 inspired us to develop a modular payload-bay. This way we can easily swap the payload modules, changing the application from "Cooled Medical Cargo" to "Thermal Imaging", and from "Multispectral" to "Mapping" in a matter of minutes.
Avy was developed in partnership with the European Space Agency and Delft University of Technology. We collaborate with other tech suppliers to integrate cameras, sensors and software. This allows us to operate at the forefront of technology, creating solutions in a fast and innovative way.

VTOL, Vertical Take Off and Landing, enables you to operate Avy on challenging surfaces and makes it easy to reach the remotest of places. In this way, you become independent of traffic and infrastructure and make your operations more precise and timely.
With its fixed wings, Avy is 10 times more efficient than a regular quadcopter drone. It can fly far and cover extensive ground, without having to recharge.
Avy is self-flying. We integrate it seamlessly and hassle-free into your daily operations. Just sit back and enjoy the mission.
Medical cool box or HD cam? Whatever your payload is, we give it wings. Avy is like a flying multitool, capable of third-party integration and with modular payload support.
No need to burn expensive and polluting fossil fuels. Operate emission-free, silently and almost invisibly from the ground, with minimal impact on wildlife and the environment. Only you know we were here...
Avy has partnered up with Auterion, the operating system for safe, reliable and efficient drone operations at scale. Having the same platform running in the drone, cloud and ground station ensures high performance in workflow streams.
Auterion Cloud Insights - The web application allows remote software updates and can be used to manage wing drone fleets, monitor their performance in the field, and offer real-time support.
Auterion Enterprise PX4 - The operating system onboard provides core flight functionality, integration with sensors and payloads, and failsafe behaviour required by regulators.
Auterion Ground Station - A user-friendly interface optimized for planning and flying safe missions (including getting real-time information about no-fly zones and weather conditions).
