Tianmushan Laboratory unveiled five major technological achievements on May 10, marking a significant step forward for Zhejiang province's low-altitude economy.

The unveiled Tianmushan Series includes two hydrogen-powered drones, one counter-drone system, and two passenger aircraft. A standout debut was the compact Tianmushan No 12, an extended-range tilt-rotor eVTOL, designed for future urban air mobility. Its tilt-wing design enables both efficient vertical takeoff and enhanced in-flight stability and safety.

Also featured was the upgraded 2.0 version of the Tianmushan No 1 hydrogen-powered drone. Equipped with quick-release hydrogen modules and an AI navigation system, it can autonomously fly in satellite-blind environments, showcasing an ability to carry out complex and extreme missions.

Experts also addressed the importance of low-altitude infrastructure and data security. Hangzhou's public take-off/landing facilities have already overseen over 1.27 million flights, while experts called for clearer investment models and secure data-sharing protocols to ensure safe and scalable aerial operations.

The event also saw the launch of a new low-altitude vehicle technology R&D and testing center and multiple strategic cooperation agreements, reinforcing Zhejiang's ambition to lead in low-altitude innovation through the integration of education, technology, and talent.
