From 2013 through 2017 it invented, patented, designed, built, and tested several test vehicles at manned and unmanned scales. After four years of research and development - including simulations, wind tunnel, and airfield testing - its tilt-wing technology was fully understood, characterized, and optimized for production. 2017 highlighted different technical challenges specific to the manned and unmanned industries. So the activities of Elytron, as an R&D organization, have been wound down, and two independent companies have been launched to pursue commercial applications, one addressing the drone market (Converticopter) and one addressing the market for scheduled door-to-door transport (Transcend Air).
