Never Miss a Target Again!
ESSENTIAL TOOL FOR SAR AND RECOVERY OPS
Worth noting: The United States Air Force received eight BlackFly eVTOLs (the preproduction version of the Helix aircraft) and conducted testing. Possible missions include EMS, special operations, and search and rescue.
As for the future? Pivotal CEO Ken Karklin says his company might someday make a hybrid two-person version of the all- electric Helix, with a diesel engine added to generate power for longer range flights. “As great as batteries have become, diesel fuel has a much higher density of energy storage than lithium does,” he said. “There’s no getting around that today. It’s about an order of magnitude better. That said, if we were building simply a larger aircraft rather than an ultralight, we could be in the range of a two-person aircraft with 50-60 miles of range with only a few hundred more pounds of mass. So we can get there and, if we’re lucky, the FAA just might come out with a certification basis for that technology in the coming year or two.”
