DJI EV50 - COMING SOON eVTOL Cargo Aircraft DJI's first electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, built for long-range unmanned cargo delivery. Key Features Eleven-motor redundancyThe EV50 runs on eleven motors, engineered so a single motor failure doesn't compromise the flight. Folding lift rotorsIts eight vertical-lift rotors fold flat once the aircraft transitions to cruise, cutting drag and extending range. Weatherproof by designAn IP55 rating protects the aircraft against dust and rain, so missions aren't grounded by weather. Built-in emergency parachuteA standard recovery parachute provides an added layer of safety in loss-of-control scenarios. Anti-icing airspeed sensingA redundant, self-heating pitot tube keeps airspeed readings reliable even in freezing, high-altitude conditions. Tool-free, two-person foldingThe airframe folds down for transport in about five minutes, with no tools and just two operators. Modular 270 L cargo bayThe cargo bay is sized for standardized cargo modules, simplifying loading without custom rigging. Field-tested at extreme altitudeBefore its public debut, the EV50 completed over 250 flight hours across 875+ test flights — including missions to 8,861 m on Mount Everest. Applications Emergency response — rescue equipment and medical supplies to areas closed to roads Long-range logistics — 50 kg loads over 150 km without a runway on either end BVLOS operations — large-area coverage without multiple aircraft or crews Infrastructure & environmental monitoring — remote pipelines, transmission lines, research sites
