“We are not only engineers, but also changemakers and innovators. We are closely working with airframers to understand their needs developing efficient applications specifically designed for the Advanced Air Mobility market and its requirements.”

János Dorogi, Engineering & Technology Lead,
Rolls-Royce Hungary

We have successfully tested technology demonstrators for all of our portfolio elements in our labs and are already working on the next iterations integrating our learnings. We are actively working with customers to adapt our technology to market requirements and as next step are planning to deliver hardware to support customer aircraft demonstrations early next year.

The power of collaboration and investment in the future

Developing novel technologies for the Advanced Air Mobility market requires partnership with customers, industry partners, academia, regulatory authorities, and governments. And these collaborations are of utmost importance to us. Success can accelerate the technological breakthroughs that will introduce new ways of travel and cargo transport, supporting a better-connected future, sustainably.

We invest in talent and technology to prepare for a future where electrical products for aviation will be produced at scale, supported by certified supply chains.

Complementing our own labs, we have access to several external test facilities and co-own the Budapest University of Technology and Economics FIEK Modular Hybrid Electric Drivetrain Lab.
