About

About Aeronext

Aeronext develops drone airframes, flight-control technology and operating infrastructure for regional logistics and public-service missions. Its 4D GRAVITY architecture uses an independently controlled cargo section to improve stability, while the AirTruck family is designed around logistics payloads and remote operations.

The company commercializes this stack through SkyHub, which combines drone operations, route planning, remote monitoring and delivery management. Aeronext and local partners have used the model in Japanese regional logistics, and the Yamatane partnership extends its remote multi-drone operating approach into agricultural work beginning with pesticide-spraying demonstrations.
