Andorra pilots 100% electric flying device rated up to 100 kg
A pilot trial in Andorra is assessing a fully electric flying device's payload, flight autonomy, handling and safety to evaluate suitability for.
Key Points
- Pilot in Andorra is evaluating a fully electric flying device under real-load conditions
- Device runs on 100% electric power and is rated to carry up to 100 kg in optimal conditions
- Tests focus on payload capacity, flight autonomy, handling, safety and operational limits
- Findings will inform certification, regulation and potential short-range cargo deployment
A pilot test in Andorra is currently evaluating the capabilities of a new electrically powered flying device. Organisers say the apparatus runs on 100% electric energy and, under optimal conditions, is rated to carry up to 100 kg.
The trial aims to determine how the device performs with real loads, assessing parameters such as payload capacity, flight autonomy and operational limits. Tests will also monitor handling and safety characteristics under different conditions to establish reliable performance data.
Being fully electric, the device is intended to reduce local emissions and noise compared with combustion-powered alternatives. Its load capacity — if confirmed in routine operation — could make it suitable for short-range cargo tasks and other logistics uses where light payloads are required.
Results from the pilot will inform any further development, regulatory steps and potential deployment plans. Organisers expect the data gathered to be decisive for certification efforts and for defining practical operational scenarios.
