The NALWA boasts impressive technical characteristics that set it apart in terms of performance, versatility, and advanced technology.

DIMENSIONS LAYOUT

DESIGN

The NALWA features compact dimensions of 7.53m x 7.15m x 2.5m (length x width x height) allowing it to access confined spaces in urban environments. It is claimed as world's smallest in this category. NALWA features a distinctive canard configuration with a forward front wing and rear closed box wing for enhanced lift, stability and control authority. The lightweight but robust airframe utilizes composite materials like carbon fiber reinforced polymer for durability and damage tolerance.

The aerodynamically sculpted fuselage is optimized for low drag across varying flight regimes. It houses a customizable 5-seat cabin with large windows for panoramic views. The landing gear consists of two main rear legs and one front nose leg for stable ground operation.

COMPACT

The optimized size combined with vertical takeoff and landing capabilities enable the NALWA to operate in and out of dense city landscapes.

The aircraft's footprint is specially designed for the infrastructure requirements of smart cities while still providing a spacious 5-seat cabin and ample cargo capacity. Whether landing on building rooftops or integrating with existing heliports, the NALWA's strategic dimensions ensure seamless urban flight operations. Its compact and functional size allows it to leverage existing aviation facilities to usher in a new era of aerial mobility.

PROPULSION SYSTEM

The patent applied distributed electric propulsion system employs 12 ducted electric fan units strategically positioned across the wings and fuselage. Rated at 100kW each, these pivotable fans provide both vertical lift and forward thrust by changing orientation from 0 to 90 degrees. This enables smooth transitioning between vertical takeoff/landing and efficient cruising flight.

The state-of-the-art ducted fans combine high-tech electric motors with low-noise blade designs resulting in reduced acoustic footprint. The strategic placement also contributes to augmented wing lift during forward flight.

AVIONICS

NALWA utilizes a quadruplex redundant digital fly-by-wire flight control system with side-stick controller for pilot inputs. This is coupled with auto-stabilization and auto-pilot algorithms for ease of flight.

The navigation system features dual GPS and inertial navigation for pinpoint accuracy. The aircraft is equipped with a glass cockpit with a transparent OLED display overlaying flight data onto exterior visuals for enhanced situational awareness.

SAFETY

" Never Let You Down "

Safety is paramount in NALWA's design ethos. Redundant flight controls, power systems and electric fans prevent single-point failures. Parachute recovery, impact-resistant materials and fire suppression systems further augment safety. Obstacle detection and avoidance capabilities enable real-time navigation in dense environments.

VERSATILITY

The modular cabin interior allows for rapid reconfiguration to suit different missions like passenger transport, cargo delivery, firefighting, reconnaissance, air ambulance and more. Customized modules can be installed using pre-designed mounting points and electrical interfaces.

With its unique combination of innovation and functionality, NALWA promises to revolutionize electric urban air mobility. Its design pushes the boundaries of aircraft engineering to unlock the true potential of eVTOL transportation.
