The highly automated SkyOS system brings a new level of simplicity and safety to general aviation. For example, here are just a few of the many first-of-its-kind features found in the Skyryse One:
Fly-by-wire flight system: This isn’t autopilot, it’s a true full four-axis flight control system flown with the SkyOS operating system and fly-by-wire.
Dynamic envelope protection:
Continuously combining pilot inputs, environmental conditions, aircraft status, and fight parameters to keep you in a safe envelope – simply. The interactive and triple-redundant flight control system provides a level of aviation safety usually found only in fighter jets and airliners.
Skyryse One Begins New Era Of Simpler, Safer Aviation
Skyryse One is the world’s first production helicopter operated with a single control stick and two touch screens. Powering the revolutionary controls is SkyOSTM, Skyryse’s proprietary operating system that offers simplified control and an aircraft-agnostic, triple-redundant fly-by- wire system.
It’s no longer just a helicopter – it’s now the most integrated, elevated, and simplified aircraft in the world. By replacing the

decades-old mechanical controls and removing hundreds of potential points of aircraft failure, Skyryse was able to completely rethink cockpit design from a blank slate to build something entirely new.
“The Skyryse One might look familiar on the outside, but the similarities
to
any other aircraft end there. Since the invention of vertical fight, pilots have juggled four controls simultaneously, using both hands and both feet just to keep it airborne – until today,” said Dr. Mark Groden, founder and CEO of Skyryse.
Fully automated autorotation: Skyryse SkyOS quickly recognizes a power failure and automatically enters into an autorotation, automating the glide, flare, and set-down, with the pilot in control.
Auto-pickup and set-down: The Skyryse One will auto-pickup and set-down at a pilot’s command with just one simple swipe on the screen.
Hover assist: Traditional helicopters require a complex synchronization of all four controls. Skyryse SkyOS simplifies all that, assisting pilots by maintaining a hover at their command (without hands or feet).
Inherent stability: Because Skyryse One is continuously stabilized by SkyOS, you

The number of recommendations the Mental Health and Aviation Medical Clearances Rulemaking Committee recently made to the FAA. Its recos include the development of a non-punitive pathway for disclosing mental health conditions and treatments, expanding the use and promotion of peer-support programs, increasing mental health training, and modernizing the FAA’s Aviation Medical Certification Subsystem. Aviation groups generally applaud the recos.
