Shield AI
An ambitious idea, built to move.
Shield AI’s X-BAT reveal called for more than a static show model. We designed and built a 45%-scale aircraft that could transition from horizontal to vertical in 60 seconds, while still being easy to transport and assemble. Nearly 500 pounds and just under two stories tall when raised, the model was engineered for two-person, one-tool assembly and 40–60% lower shipping costs.
