A year after it was pronounced airworthy by the FAA, and 14 years after it was first announced, the Samson Sky Switchblade is officially off the ground. This street-legal three-wheeler converts to a 200-mph (320-km/h) airplane at the touch of a button…. Continue reading Samson Switchblade: First flight for fold-out flying car
Got a pilot’s license? That and a cool ten mil will let you take off vertically then soar horizontally through the sky with Lilium’s sleek electric-powered craft, which is now on sale in the US market. It represents the first time eVTOLs have been offe… Continue reading Now you can own your own eVTOL, if you’re crazy rich
Monégasque aerial photography and drone show company McClic has successfully test-flown its MC One personal eVTOL, a simple but nice-looking coaxial octacopter with a pilot’s seat on top. Anyone can fly it, given about 10 minutes’ training.Continue Rea… Continue reading MC One personal eVTOL rocks a Monaco-grade price tag
Kit helicopter manufacturer RotorX has stepped into the personal eVTOL fray with its own take on the manned multicopter. The Dragon promises to zip you around at up to 63 mph (101 km/h), with joystick control, auto-landing, and a ballistic parachute.Co… Continue reading RotorX opens pre-orders on its kit-build ultralight personal eVTOL
You’ll have to pilot this next-gen aircraft yourself – although that’ll be easier than you’d think. Lift Aircraft says it’ll take you less than an hour to learn to fly its Hexa eVTOL, and then you’re off on a unique and spectacular sightseeing trip.Con… Continue reading eVTOL flights will begin next year in NYC – but there’s a catch
California startup Alef Aeronautics has shown off a remarkably fresh take on the street-legal eVTOL flying car in its 2025 Model A. This wild design debuts a 2-axis tilting cabin, and a horizontal cruise flight mode unlike anything we’ve seen before.Co… Continue reading Astonishing eVTOL flying car design uses side panels as biplane wings
The team behind the ADIFO omnidirectional, supersonic flying saucer has designed and prototyped an interesting and unique eVTOL design with an extraordinarily quick and simple method of transitioning between vertical and horizontal flight modes.Continu… Continue reading Innovative “Mad Bat” tail-sitting biplane eVTOL can also use runways
Doroni says it’s just months away from a full-scale, flying prototype of its H1 two-seat personal eVTOL design. Where most in this space build the simplest and cheapest multicopter-style airframes possible, the H1 offers dedicated horizontal thrust, to… Continue reading Doroni opens orders on its H1 personal lift & cruise eVTOL
Zeva is moving to prototype a second-generation version of its radically different take on eVTOL flight. The Z2 remains a tail-sitting flying saucer that flies a single person head-first at high speeds, but the new model makes some practical changes.Co… Continue reading Zeva aims for efficiency and practicality with upgraded Z2 eVTOL UFO
