Pseudo Direct Drive
Air Taxi Propulsion Motor

Magnomatics’ PDD, a high performance magnetically geared motor, offers an efficient, lightweight, air-cooled solution for EVTOL, UAM and fixed wing aircraft. Specifically designed to handle loads from tilt-propeller systems, it supersedes the current state of the art direct drive permanent magnet motors by providing all the advantages of a mechanically geared machine without the risk of jamming.

 

Project partner on the NATEP grant funded project, Carbon ThreeSixty are continuing with additional designs to improve the light weighting options still further.
