Textron eAviation's Nuuva V300 cargo eVTOL
Textron eAviation is developing a hybrid-electric, ultra-long-range eVTOL cargo drone called the Nuuva V300.

Textron’s eAviation division has acquired Amazilia Aerospace, a German company that specializes in digital flight controls and vehicle management systems (VMS). In a statement issued May 15, Textron eAviation said it now holds “substantially all the assets” of Amazilia, which employs about 30 people at its facilities in Munich. 

Founded in 2018 under the parent company SF Express, a Chinese logistics group, Amazilia already has extensive experience working with Textron eAviation’s Pipistrel subsidiary. Textron acquired the Slovenian electric light aircraft manufacturer in 2022 as part of its new electric aviation strategy, which included the launch of its eAviation subsidiary that same year.
