As lovers of future technology, we’re fascinated by the promise and potential of electric VTOL aircraft – and we spend a lot of time covering the many and varied approaches that hundreds of companies are racing to bring to market. But that doesn’t mean… Continue reading Helicopter CEO: eVTOLs have “precious little chance” and pose no threat
Palo Alto startup Archer has started flight tests with its autonomous, two-seat Maker demonstration aircraft, fulfilling a promise it made when it popped out of stealth mode 18 months ago to start demo flights by the end of 2021.Continue ReadingCategor… Continue reading Archer celebrates the first flight of its Maker eVTOL
Vertical Aerospace, operating out of Bristol, England, has announced more pre-sales than anyone else in the eVTOL industry – more than 1,350 aircraft to date, or US$5.4 billion dollars’ worth, and believes it will be one of the first companies to achie… Continue reading Vertical Aerospace targets 2024 certification on back of record pre-sales
Electric VTOL aircraft stand poised to change your world, if you believe the hype around this new category of air transport. Greener, faster, quieter and vastly cheaper than helicopters, they promise to bring vertical commuting to the masses like never… Continue reading 10 unique eVTOL aircraft that do things very differently
China’s eHang says it’s “hopeful” it’ll achieve full type certification for its autonomous EH216 eVTOL aircraft “in the next few months,” after which commercial operations can begin – potentially years earlier than American and European competitors.Con… Continue reading eHang’s pilotless eVTOL may be certified and operational within months
France’s Ascendance has released an updated design and range figure for its long-range, fan-in-wing, eVTOL air taxi. The Atea will use batteries and kerosene for energy storage, but its modular hybrid system will eventually support hydrogen as well.Con… Continue reading Ascendance revises the design for its long-range hybrid eVTOL
New render images and details have emerged on our favorite Chinese “I can’t believe it’s not Lilium” eVTOL air taxi project. The Pantuo Pantala Concept H, out of Shanghai, might look like the Lilium, but it promises to hit faster cruise speeds.Continue… Continue reading Pantuo Aviation unveils China’s answer to the Lilium Jet
