The Challenge
Great stories have a challenge. Whether it's personal or involves a community, a challenge is what makes us take action towards a goal. In our case, the challenge that started the story of FlyingBasket in 2015 is about the available aviation solutions that were not accessible for many businesses, increased the risks for personnel and were difficult to deploy. We believe in the power of innovation and the way it changes our normality, so we gathered a team of like-minded people to pursue a new alternative to methods of transportation and lifting of goods (helicopters, cranes, etc.). Our goal is to provide the same benefits but at a fraction of the cost, in a sustainable (emission-free) and user-friendly way. Each day we work with partners and clients to bring dedicated and efficient drone solutions that are changing the way industries operate.

Our Story
FlyingBasket was founded in 2015 by Moritz and Matthias Moroder.
While they were hiking in the Dolomites and noticed a helicopter delivering food to a mountain shelter, the idea of replacing a helicopter with a drone to make these services more sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective started to take shape. In the following years, drone prototypes were designed, developed, and tested in a mountainous area where weather conditions can be extremely challenging and the first use cases have been tested. When the FB3 drone became a reality, not only did it solve the initial purpose for which it was conceived, but developed into what today is the benchmark in its category for cargo drones.
In 2020 FlyingBasket was the first commercial cargo drone operational.
Today it's the most experienced operator for cargo drone applications.
Over time, not only did our drones evolve but so did our team. Today the FlyingBasket team consists of an international mix of highly skilled, motivated, and creative minds.
Paving the way for a better future.
FlyingBasket has a set of core values that are reflected in its product and services, the way the team works and the company’s mission and vision. FlyingBasket is far from being just another drone manufacturer or operator, the company mindset is shaped by strong values that are the key to all the work performed daily and in the long term.
