Highly-Elastic Material 

HEM is a newly developed material that possesses exceptional structural strength and excellent flexibility. This material is a result of collaborative research and development with our suppliers. HEM is primarily used in components such as the frame, blades, and body of HOVERAir X1, X1 PRO, and PROMAX, where the strength and lightweight properties of the material are crucial. 

Compared to traditional materials, HEM has an extremely low density of only 0.96g/cm³, which is even lighter than carbon fiber. This characteristic gives it a wide range of applications in fields such as aerospace and automotive manufacturing, where it can significantly reduce product weight and enhance overall performance.

We iterated extensively during the research and development process to achieve optimal performance and reliability. Molecular restructuring techniques were used to optimize its structure and performance, while we also subjected the material to extensive reliability tests including those to ensure stability in various climate conditions.

Magnesium and Magnesium Alloys

Overview

Another material of note in the HOVERAir X1 series is the use of magnesium alloys. Magnesium alloy, known as the “21st-century green engineering material,” is an alloy material made by adding various elements such as aluminum, zinc, manganese, cerium, and thorium to a magnesium base. Magnesium alloys are characterized by their low density, approximately 1.8g/cm³, which is much lower than most metal materials, yet they offer high strength and a large modulus of elasticity. They also possess excellent thermal conductivity and damping properties. 


Compared to aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys perform better in terms of impact load-bearing capacity and have superior resistance to organic and magnetic corrosion.

These properties make magnesium alloys widely used in aerospace, aviation, automotive, and other industries. In the HOVERAir X1, X1 PRO, and PROMAX, magnesium alloy is used in parts like the gimbal and heat sink for its strength and conductivity properties.
