ePropelled Company Description
ePropelled: Powering the Next Wave of Electric Aviation
ePropelled may not make the aircraft themselves, but they’re the reason many of them can take off. Founded in 2018 in Laconia, New Hampshire, this American firm designs the high-efficiency propulsion systems that push modern UAVs and eVTOLs beyond their limits. With 47 patents under its belt and R&D outposts in the UK and India, ePropelled stands as the quiet powerhouse behind the electric aviation boom.
Rather than selling end-user flyers, ePropelled supplies the brains and muscle of the movement: intelligent motors, controllers, and generators that make electric propulsion leaner and smarter. Their proprietary Dynamic Torque Switching (eDTS™) technology squeezes out up to 25% more efficiency—gold dust in an industry where every watt counts.
ePropelled’s Technology: The eDTS™ Advantage
At the core of ePropelled’s magic lies its Dynamic Torque Switching system. The technology allows propulsion units to seamlessly optimize torque output while minimizing power consumption. And that translates to lighter batteries, longer flights, and smaller carbon footprints. It’s the tech you don’t see—but can feel when your UAV stays aloft longer than expected.
OEMs working on eVTOL propulsion technology or drone swarms quickly realize the math: higher range with lower draw equals more mission capability. And when paired with ePropelled’s intelligent power management systems, flight control turns into a science of smooth precision.
The Falcon and Hercules Series: Compact Powerhouses
ePropelled’s product lines read like a B2B engineer’s wish list. The Falcon Series drives high-thrust UAVs with models such as the iAPM600, capable of pumping 10kW at 5,000 RPM, all while weighing under 5kg. Meanwhile, the Hercules Series focuses on hybrid starter-generators—the SG12000 pushes 14kW at 9,000 RPM, helping hybrid eVTOLs stretch endurance without bloating battery packs.
Every unit is hand-built in their U.S. DoD-compliant facility, ensuring defense-grade quality and reliability. Materials like rare-earth magnets and precision-balanced rotors give each product military-level toughness without sacrificing weight efficiency.

- Hercules Series: Hybrid starter-generators for endurance
- eDTS™ control for dynamic efficiency
Manufacturing Built on Precision and Compliance
All assembly, coil winding, and testing happen in-house at ePropelled’s 24,000-square-foot facility in New Hampshire. No offshoring, no uncertainty—just tight control and NDAA compliance for customers who need guaranteed U.S. sourcing. That level of oversight gives defense and aerospace buyers confidence, knowing every rotor and controller meets the highest reliability thresholds.
By 2026, the company plans full vertical integration—handling laminations, machining, and component finishing internally. That means shorter lead times, lower costs, and higher quality consistency for OEM clients worldwide.
Performance That Translates to Flight
When engineers plug an ePropelled system into a test rig, the numbers speak loudly. The motors deliver massive starting torque with reduced energy draw, giving UAVs 25% more range or smaller battery requirements for the same flight time. Tests show Falcon motors sustaining 80 km/h cruises for 45 minutes, outpacing legacy brushed DC systems by roughly 20%.
For hybrid eVTOL propulsion, the Hercules generators deliver silent, reliable performance—below 60 dB even at full power. And because of their fault-tolerant redundancy, one unit can keep the craft airborne even if another channel falters. For operators balancing payload, endurance, and safety, that’s priceless.
Software, Support, and Smart Control
Where ePropelled excels isn’t just in metal and magnets—it’s in control intelligence. Their developer ecosystem provides software for torque vectoring, regenerative braking, and AI-based energy routing. Through Ethernet or CAN bus, users can tune parameters in real time. Whether it’s squeezing range from a long-haul drone or boosting climb performance in an air taxi, adjustments are fast and intuitive.
All systems come with IP67 sealing for weather resistance and scalable modules for multiple aircraft types. And when customers need help, the support team’s rapid response via Slack channels keeps R&D timelines on track. For OEMs balancing innovation with production speed, that level of partnership feels rare.
The Future of Propulsion: Quiet, Efficient, and Domestic
ePropelled isn’t chasing headlines—it’s enabling them. The company’s propulsion systems power drones, eVTOLs, and uncrewed ground vehicles across sectors, from defense to delivery. With efficiency, compliance, and scalability baked into every unit, they’re shaping how modern electric mobility lifts off—literally.
As the air mobility propulsion market heads toward $100 billion by 2030, ePropelled is already in flight, quietly turning good designs into great aircraft. Uncrewed, unlimited, and unmistakably efficient—that’s ePropelled’s calling card.
