Drones That Defy Physics: Inside Aerix’s Omnidirectional Revolution
What if a drone could flip upside down, spin in place, and hold steady in a 100 km/h storm? In this episode, we explore the mind-blowing innovation of Aerix Systems, a French deep tech startup founded in 2020 by two engineering students in Gironde.
Aerix has developed the world’s first omnidirectional propulsion system—think drone engines mounted on gimbals that let it thrust in any direction. Their modular platform, the M1, can reach 200 km/h in 2.5 seconds, carry up to 10 kg, and maintain stability even in extreme weather. It's not just for aerial stunts—Aerix is targeting real-world applications in energy, construction, and defense, like inspecting wind turbines during storms or intercepting rogue drones from kilometers away.
Co-founders Clément Picaud and Hugo Mayounove have built not just drones, but plug-and-play aerial robots with full computing, sensor payloads, and autonomous navigation—making Aerix a true leap forward in drone agility and versatility.
Tune in to discover how Aerix is pushing the boundaries of flight and redefining what drones can do.
