Carter Aviation Technologies (also known as CarterCopters) is a privately held[2] aviation research and development company based in Wichita Falls, Texas, United States.
The main focus of the company is developing new technology and then licensing it to other manufacturers for use on production aircraft.[3] Carter sees its role as predominantly that of research and development with the aim of patenting[4] the aviation technological advances it makes.[5][6] The company is mainly known for making the CarterCopter, and since 2011 its replacement, the Carter Personal Air Vehicle.
