Safer
The duct encloses the rotor, reducing contact and foreign-object risks.
Why ducted fan propulsion
Compared with exposed propellers, ducted fans are better suited for electric aircraft in terms of safety, noise, wind resistance, and vehicle integration.
Quieter
About 53 dB at 100 metres, through collaborative active and passive noise reduction.
More reliable
Twenty distributed propulsion units with civil aviation-grade 10⁻⁹ safety design.
More efficient
Propulsion and aircraft aerodynamics are integrated to balance propulsive efficiency and energy consumption.
Two product paths, one engineering system
Ducted fans form the core of both Yuntu's propulsion products and eVTOL aircraft development.
