Colibri

With its 100kg (wet) and 2m45, Colibri is the first rocket hopper built by students and the first free-flying rocket hopper in Europe.

Concept Design

In addition to demonstrating its ability to perform VTVL flights, This vehicle is able to carry a 3kg payload offering numerous scientific opportunities.
To better meet the potential needs of the market and efficiently plan the development of the vehicle, a credited semester system engineering project has been done at EPFL with the help of Pr. Bernard Foing, French scientist at ESA.

Fligth proven

In 2024, Colibri, our bi-propellant vertical take-off and landing (VTVL) rocket, completed 53 flights.
