Development of "Beedol," a one-seater eVTOL that can be loaded in a van and is suitable for a variety uses, including leisure and disaster relief.
【Exhibits】
Beedol 2 – Achieved manned flight in Kakamigahara City, Gifu Prefecture.
Beedol 3 – A quarter-scale model designed for practicality and comfort.
【Business Details】
We are developing Beedol, a single-seat eVTOL with folding wings that can be transported in a van and is capable of taking off and landing on both land and water.
It is designed for use in rescue missions in areas with limited road access during disasters, for transporting supplies, and for leisure travel to remote islands, mountainous regions, and other locations that are difficult to reach with existing transportation infrastructure.
With intuitive joystick controls, Beedol enables safe, stable, and easy flight for anyone.
In February 2025, we successfully completed a manned flight in Kakamigahara City, Gifu Prefecture.
Our next steps include obtaining permission for outdoor flights and conducting high-altitude flight tests to further enhance performance and stability.
In the future, we plan to develop a domestically produced flight computer and implement autonomous operation, aiming to realize the commercialization of a new generation of air mobility.

Beedol2
This is the second full-scale model developed by Shirogane Giken, which achieved manned flight.
Featuring detachable wings that can be loaded into a commercial van and a buoyant body, it can freely travel between the air and water bodies such as seas and lakes.
We completed the front-and-rear symmetrical body, achieving low cost and high rigidity, in a short period.
Going forward, we plan to develop a parachute and a highly redundant flight computer to utilize them in outdoor manned flight tests.
Beedol3 (Quarter-scale)
This is a next-generation quarter-scale prototype focused on practicality and ride comfort.
The rear wing is mounted at an angle, and the front wing has been downsized, improving forward visibility.
We plan to produce a full-scale model based on this prototype around 2026.
Equipped with an upper roll bar and a lightweight, high-rigidity body, along with the latest high-capacity battery, it aims for a flight range of 40 km.
Additionally, improvements have been made to the redundancy of the flight computer and the folding structure, and the design features gull-wing doors and genuine leather seats.
Our goal is to deliver a high-quality aircraft ready for immediate market release.
