OEM OVERVIEW
MuYu Aero
Mainland China | Founded in 2018
MuYu Aero, founded in 2018, is a privately held company based in Wuxi, China, and is one of the first enterprises to engage in the
development of light sport aircraft. The predecessor company of MuYu began to develop and manufacture light sport aircraft in 2004,
where aircraft design, aircraft molds, components, motors, and so on were all made by MuYu. In terms of non-eVTOL aircraft, MuYu
developed the DOLPHIN 200 Amphibious LSA, the MY-ABC Amphibious Flying Car, and the MY-AH 500 Automatic Uncrewed Coaxial
Helicopter. The company is currently developing and testing a four-seat (EV-4) and a seven-seat (VJET-7) passenger eVTOL, along with a
1.2-ton (AT1200) and an 8-ton (AT8000) hybrid-powered unmanned eVTOL drone. The VJET-7 completed a 20% subscale test flight and was
marketed as an electric business jet. The AT8000 finished a 20% subscale test, while the full-scale prototype is under construction. The
production model of the AT8000 will have a payload of 3.5 tons and a target range of 1,300 to 4,000 kilometers, depending on the load. MuYu
Aero plans to conduct a test flight for the full-scale AT1200 in July 2023. The AT1200 has a payload of 500 kilograms and a target range
similar to that of the AT8000. MuYu is planning to build an 8-ton VTOL UAV project with an annual output of 700 units in three phases.

EV-4 adopted a Lift and Cruise configuration with a pair of high wings. There are four booms beneath the wings. Each boom has four
propellors, proving lifting power, and the two propellers in front of the wings are used for cruising. The EV-4 can accommodate one pilot
and three passengers, and will mainly be used for urban air mobility. MuYu plans to make major adjustments to the exterior of the EV-4 to
further enhance the spacing of the vehicle.
