About

CANBOX configuration combines canard with Poleti's proprietary boxwing design, yielding great improvements with flight efficiency and considerably stronger and lighter airframe. This configuration is inherently 100% safe for flight, as stalling the whole aircraft uncontrollably is impossible.

Key Benefits

Better aircraft efficiency (less drag for same lift) which leads to less CO2 emissions. Better manoeuvrability, giving every pilot a chance to fly like a jet-fighter-pilot. Risk is practically non-existent, as the aircraft cannot stall (it parachutes instead) and ventral horizontal surfaces guarantee 100% yaw control.

Applications

Scalable to any aircraft and rotorcraft size.
