The idea of having these EVTOL's used as an UBER is a fantastic idea! Certified Pilots (NOT your average citizen!) can serve as pilots taking passengers from one short location to another destination. The average UBER ride costs each person around $20 to $30 per ride so I wonder how these would fare out.
0.17 cents a minute is what it costs roughly to drive a car every minute/mile now...I'm designing an autonomous that could peacefully coexist with urban landscapes and other transportation, and you will be able to rent it for about 10 cents a minute eventually. The MK-1 has only 1 seat, for liability reasons and whatnot but I aim for 3-5 eventually - no greedy price per passenger bs (all the same 10-15 cents a minute/mile regardless of how many are riding). Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Miami, Seoul, Hong Kong...you name it, it will be an option there to get over the overpopulated and bustling interstates below. Most people will probably use it for what would normally be a 1-2-hour drive, which would be about a 30-40-minute flight. there would be small vertiports near where main highways enter cityscapes from different directions. So, it would be about $18 (35 min * 0.125 cents to * 2 (and from)) for flights like that. And it's much more stable in-flight because (of a non-patented thing I just designed).
The main difference between the EH is autonomy, which reduces the cost of flying, there is no need to pay for the services of a pilot and his transportation. The flight range is quite consistent with the size of almost any city. It is quite possible that already this year they will receive permission to open several routes in China.
@@LemonOne The main difference is that there are no crazy drivers in the air and no unexpected obstacles. The copter flies from point A to point B, it has no obstacles and no one interferes with it.
FAA approval after new testing and safety compliances will make flying through urban and some suburban environments quite an exciting experience. Taking a bus or shuttle to a flight liftoff station where a VTOL that can lift you, commuting, to anywhere - literally anywhere- within 150 km adds purposeful career options depth and new safety and emergency access for emergency personnel. Paramedics, nurses, doctors, various medical personnel, firefighting and police officers and many other people in many other types and sorts of jobs can now have easier access to their harder to reach "work" (emergency) locations. Imagine if you will, rescuing stranded roadway drivers from a flooded highway, or accessing disaster victims near a forest fire to help evacuate them, and many more emergency applications for VTOL-not only regular everyday new formats of private and public transportation. Wow!
If I can have to start the company like this one. I can't beleive me of helping this world to find more ideas of great enjoyment in real life with all safety features.
Great content. I am invested in Ehang, Joby and Archer. I will add more of all. Ehang is ahead, Joby is leading in Western World and Archer is super fast!
I see a great future for these with regards to users accessing city proximity from over river waterways or from mountainous/hillside regions with poor road access. It will save on fuel consumption and fuelling costs for they hiring their use. 🦋 With designated landing and takeoff pads on the roofs of central buildings this taxi service is a sure winner. All we truly need then is access to elevators on the outsides of buildings that are efficient and fast and we are working towards improving commutes for city inhabitants and beyond. All inland flights should now be battery and green hydrogen fuelled. This should have taken place decades ago.
@@TopBoxy I think the elevators are a crucial build with regards the appeal of the infrastructure for commuters. Love buildings with outside elevators on them. 👍
The irony of all these flying vehicles is that with the new VR/AR headsets, we can already connect so well with someone in other places, we don't need to go there...
In my humble opinion, by reducing electric consumption during take-off and landing, you could add to passengers number or increase cruising distance. This can be done by some hard-wire arrangement either by overhead contact or by take off/landing electric pole via a coupling/decoupling arrangement which allows frequent overnight take off
That's would be a safety hazard also not very useful . Since to transition and achieve forward speed u have to move forward. So basically u would require airport like length . So redundant
@@keriddunk1520 I'm not sure what safety hazard you are talking about? In any case, in all forms of transport there is certain amount of risk are involved. I am only talking about an interim measure. Until such time, more advance batteries come along. I think use of main electricity for take off/landing enable longer range flights and therefore more practical eVTOL. I am given to believe take off/landing consume extraordinary amount of battery power in eVTOL flights
There will be NO electric airplane taxis. It may be a dream for MSFS 2020 and PMDG jockeys which don't have a clue about flying the real thing. Flying airplanes is NOT a game, gamer pilots. Regards from a real pilot with 20'000 hours plus of flying experience on pretty much everything (from P-51 Mustangs to helicopters and one-, two, three and four engined jets, including the Jumbojet Boeing 747-8) . And BTW: Stop lying about "environment friendly transportation"... Every battery powered propeller gets its electricity from coal or nuclear powered generators. Electric airplanes are about as stupid as an electric Tesla piece of junk. There will be NO electric powered commercial airplane within your lifetime. Why not? The batteries are WAY too heavy. The laws of physics... always win against ideology. Dream on, good doers and climate activists... And BTW 2.0: In order to fly you'll have to get a pilots licence. There will be no "Joe Average" sitting in a drone... Investors are totally aware of that... That's why there's NO successful electric airplane company out there. And BTW 2.1: Airbus and other airplane manufacturers are doing it for PR reasons, only. There was a battery powered small Cessna in the 1980's. No success. There are some battery powered small airplanes today. No success. It's a waste of money and a waste of time. I published many articles and books about it (in german language). Regards from Europe. RS
@@Renato.Stiefenhofer.747driver I fully agree "electric plains are not as yet practical, but twenty years ago you could have said the same thing about electric cars and find my MG very practical too. Nevertheless, for the past eight years I have been driving an electric car. Even generation of electricity is subject to dynamic progress and hopefully will improve the environment too
Lilium jet will sell for 7m Euros (OEM) or 10m for individual. This platform seems very promising but may have issues with battery tech available today.
I have seen several videos of such EVTOL, and none of them speaks about bad weather situations, reduced visibility, wind, ... I'd like to see one of these take off or land with a crosswind of 30kots

Lilium is really spiffy. I like the use of small motors. A hydrogen hybrid would be smart. Hopefully in the near future countries will realize that hydrogen satisfies the need for energy efficiency and will build hydrogen plants that will reduce the cost of fuel. Fusion reactors would be perfection.
I envisiged a craft like the one on the thumbnail with the 6 ducted fans surrounding the cabin pretty much exactly like it (but without the outer wings). I was wondering about access to the cabin on my design. Maybe a built-in crane? Looks like the one on the thumbnail needs a crane too.
The general consensus I see in this video is that there is little profit in producing one or two seaters and the only way forward is to go large but then vertical take off may drop off the menu.
I worked on a EVTOL in Mountain View California, Joby had engineering offices here in Redwood City Ca for a while. The biggest problems that these companies is getting FAA and NTSB approval and also the restrictions imposed by the energy density of the Lithium batteries. What would be interesting is to see all of the contenders show up for a race around a fixed course against each other or one at a time. Lets see if they can find anyone brave enough to do what the pioneers of aviation were doing in the 1930s in front of a crowd!
Joby has a medium term advantage with respect to the energy lithium density problem. Toyota has a stake in Joby and is developing solid state batteries that they plan to use in cars in 2025.
I never will understand why people want to remove the human factor from driving and flying. They basically want us to live for nothing and just exist. Safety they say, but what they really aim for is "no control over your life".
What about evtol in flight recharging? A model rocket attached to a thin wire with the other end hooked up to the battery, coiled up to save space and prevent tangles, the pilot would fire the rocket into a cloud filled with static electricity. The wire would "encourage" some of that static electricity to "go hot" and travel along the wire. *BOOM* the batteries are charged beyond 100% instantaneously.
Now that's a great idea. Tesla himself would say "go for it" . I was hoping by now anti-grav tech would be hot ticket as I feel this EVOL is just a distraction. Def creative but not end game. Still creating or repurposing energy (which cost us energy, duh) instead using what's already there! Part of "disclosure" game our government and others where anything wonderful or out of the box thinkinking gets kicked to "national security" or so which makes it unpatentable but destroys the use of it even by the reinventor. Noticed I said reinventor? Even the miraculous Nicolai Tesla and many others have stated that that have only rediscovered what has been previously known or covered up. All these great ideas, dynamic effort and capitalistic struggling is for naught as there is something already better out there. They (aka Elite, power brokers, etc.) Won't let us have it..naughty naughty..go figure. Frigging bastards. Was gonna stop few clicks ago but bullshit. These fuckers aim to keep us down. Dribble out a little tech, something cool, enough to keep us at bay, quench our needs a bit. Distraction is their weapon of choice and it seems to be working well. If that doesn't work they really like smearing some good honest thinking individual who really does believe he's helping mankind. Then BAM, they just railroad this person finacialy, leak un truths, destroy his family. This "game" of theirs has no boundries only despicable acts to keep this society "DARK". And historians labeled midevil times "dark" hah! We are the blind, the unfounded, the ones who wish things were better but DO NOTHING to change it. Alas I myself as most are included. I write thes damn rebuttals, post, hoping some may see and act too. Chin up.

Flying in a straight line to your destination in a vtol taxi or private carrier drone saving time is a pipe dream. When vtols come down in price and become more accessible to the public, governments will implement "fly lanes" through which you can fly either manually or pre-programmed into the unmanned flight computer. And you can bet these fly lanes will follow the road network as people will be afraid of them malfunctioning and come crashing down on houses or apartment blocks.
If any of these are to be the new form of travel for the general populous...two questions come to mind... 1) Are current vehicles recyclable..?? 2) How are these new forms of fuselages going to handle so much breathing..?? (in regards to pressurizing and depressurizing... I.E. Flight 243)
We wont see real widespread flying vehicles like this until we have overcome small scale nuclear power generation and the ability to manipulate gravity.
All of this is of course very interesting, but it seems to me that all these machines have no future. They are too large. However, the device that you had at the end of the video, in the lower left corner, looks promising. I would like to know more about him.
i think i had the right design, compact and can cary a huge payload, im not revealing it yet to the public eyes, my design is easy very cheap to make, i have not yet have a pattent. youl be surprise when this design uncovers, it will revolutionize transportation.
@@KnHighmer_Dos yeah thats right, but i think im not foolish enough to overstimate myself and im not that super smart thats why im very confident to say that my design is very practical and simple, that even a person like me can claim it confidently. i can say that the answer is already right under your nose you people just dont realize it it yet, remember me a lowly filipino that will make history
8:18... most effective, efficient and hilarious aviation use of a 3 second "Happy tree friends" video...ever. I think the Chinese Govt. will insist all EHang flyers sign their organ donor cards before embarking.
I think JOBY has best mechanical design, but they need to work on autonomy, because as of right now they need a pilot to fly it which takes up weight and space. They also need to incorporate a battery pack swap design as well, if they did those 2 things they would have the perfect craft.
We plan to start an aerospace schools in 2025 for kids aged 10 to 14 Years old.Real time Practical based education for invention and innovation.We are looking for like minded people to join as promoters ,teachers etc
My personal opinion, is that a hybrid (Elect. & Nat. Gas) would be the way to go (Increased distances). We now know, that EVs have already run their course, and people are tired of spending a lot of their hard earned $$$$, to travel a short distance, and then have to replace batteries after a couple of years, at another big cost.
Clearly Joby and Lilium have the best combination of important characteristics. And as of today (20221208) each share of LILM is only $1.27 since the share price has been consistently falling. That's a company valuation of $382M USD for LILM and 2180M for JOBY. From this I infer the market believes JOBY has a big advantage over LILM, even though (to me) the Lilium aircraft seems to edge out the Joby design in most ways. Does anyone know why the market values JOBY about 6x higher than LILM ??? Seems I'm missing something ... though maybe the 2x higher estimated sale price per airplane for LILM is the reason? Opinions? Based on my own very early design attempts I estimate Lilium will eventually reduce the total number of motors by somewhere between 4 and 8. That should improve efficiency a bit and help lower the price slightly. Also, I'm guessing that after 1 or 2 years they'll do without pilots, which will lower weight and operating costs.
@@TopBoxy I think that the combination of vertical take off with some kind of fixed wing is the best of both worlds. It is maneuverability and efficiency.
Thank you Top Box! Please think about safety! Electrical problems. Strong wind problem!!! Balance weight mechnism. Double eletrical system. Back up steering. The bottom have an inflatable. Simple.

THe big three are Joby Lilium and Ehang. Those are the three with most invested time and effort. And all three will fare well once they get their numbers and routes up to speed. Expect full deployment in the next 3 to 5 years. As its not neccesarily about the evolution and completion of the aircraft as their just about done, but rather the vertiports and overall air networks that has to be built alongside current aviation commercial operations. New laws and regulations having to be drawn up to accomodate these aircraft which will likely fly in bravo airspace. and how it will coinside with current bravo airspace aircraft. never the less. its just about time to invest in their stocks granted, write not it doesnt look as if their stocks is doing well. Its actually fine. those that get in big now may take a beating but when it all takes off as its already doing in regards to notoriety. then people will invest hard. This is a trilliion dollar industry in the making. a self serving industry and yet one that will branch off into many sectors. If anything its the helicopter industry that will take a major hit with the coming of these evtols, just as capable less complicated and seating more with far less pollution. And it is possible in the distant future that these will indeed go consumer market. JEtsons back to the future Blade runner fifth element here we come.
Lilium only provided miniature models that can only fly for a few minutes at just 70km/h as compared to the touted 280km/h so they're not really proving anything yet when it comes to the travel aerodynamics. I'm not sure if Joby is load-less but, at least, it is full-scale and flies at full speed with all the equipment onboard so it's not just hype. The elephant in the room is that small-factor propellers are exrreeemely inefficient and there's no working around it.
@@byronnash45 Well, as I mentioned, they're a potential scam else they're among the best but certainly not the most affordable. They're literally sacrificing efficiency for esthetics but if that's what gets the most investment. The technology is not impossible but I doubt it'll be of much benefit if it's reserved for the super-rich. The other options are not cheap neither but, at least, they're taking battery limitations into consideration. Lilium will only be worth it once battery density goes up considerably but that'll probably take us another decade. In the meantime, it's wiser to bet on the other competitors I'd say.
@@ziad_jkhan interesting 🤔, I’m still doing research on this company I’m a long term investor. So I would mind for the technology side to catch up for the batteries to be more efficient. I personally think Lilium has the best designed some of the others use the same propulsion system as seen on helicopters yes maybe more efficient cost wise, but Lilium technology has some advantages. Plus Palantir is working with Lilium i highly doubt it’s a scam just my thoughts, I think Palantir will definitely Help Lilium be more efficient with the analytics provided. As the technology gets more advance it’ll become more cheaper and lighter in weight to become more efficient. I think the market for eVtol Travel is a huge market. Thank you for you insight very helpful.
I agree we didn't see it all before.. EVTOL JOBY s4 is an absolutely rubbish design: heavy, inefficient, over-complicated, poor range and expensive.. yep, that's definitely a future - future disaster for all investors!

If that doesn't work they really like smearing some good honest thinking individual who really does believe he's helping mankind. Then BAM, they just railroad this person finacialy, leak un truths, destroy his family. This "game" of theirs has no boundries only despicable acts to keep this society "DARK". And historians labeled midevil times "dark" hah!
We are the blind, the unfounded, the ones who wish things were better but DO NOTHING to change it. Alas I myself as most are included. I write thes damn rebuttals, post, hoping some may see and act too. Chin up. One day soon hopefully I will have the funds to set up needed resistance type information site where I can post Close to 30 years of my writings, evaluations and just plain good information

Actual flying cars as we were promised in the last century
Flying in a straight line to your destination in a vtol taxi or private carrier drone saving time is a pipe dream. When vtols come down in price and become more accessible to the public, governments will implement "fly lanes" through which you can fly either manually or pre-programmed into the unmanned flight computer. And you can bet these fly lanes will follow the road network as people will be afraid of them malfunctioning and come crashing down on houses or apartment blocks.
Well, developers should think about this. But then the whole point of launching such aircraft is lost altogether.
If any of these are to be the new form of travel for the general populous...two questions come to mind...
1) Are current vehicles recyclable..??
2) How are these new forms of fuselages going to handle so much breathing..?? (in regards to pressurizing and depressurizing... I.E. Flight 243)
I don't think flying vehicles will become that widespread till we can utilize a different propulsion method. Something like perceived anti-grav.
I have an idea for a hybrid (diesel-electro) VTOL gyroplane with an improved gyroplane propeller configuration!
Nice, persue it bro I wish you good luck 💪🏻
We wish you good luck
Looks like you had the DB meter pointing away from the EVTOL by 180 degrees. Slight of hand?
Magic :)
I number seven company watch out boys I’m coming right behind you lol
I like German craft , but with some modifications , it can be awesome .
E Hong no good?
Why do you think so?
@@TopBoxy Donno sir from ur video explanation seem like Ehong have a lot of flaw,isn’t it?
I would love to participate in development of this 😍
There will be none.
Хорошие концепты "летателей". Когда будет такой как в к/ф "Аватар"?
Тот уже вне времени. Ждем следующего прототипа в Аватар2 :)
Is it possible they will all do well. Because it’s where we are heading
Well that will bypass the surveillance issue around drone usage.
What's the problem?
@@TopBoxy drones are still under a ban for spying on civilians in some countries, but scale them up call them a taxi and bobs your aunty Mary
un chouette taxi avec lequel je partirais bien en vacances
We wont see real widespread flying vehicles like this until we have overcome small scale nuclear power generation and the ability to manipulate gravity.
First man flight = Either success or dead
That was brave
I want something that can get me access to the rivers in my area. Most entrances are blocked from vehicle access in my area.
All of this is of course very interesting, but it seems to me that all these machines have no future. They are too large. However, the device that you had at the end of the video, in the lower left corner, looks promising. I would like to know more about him.
There were Embraer Eve, Bell Nexus and Jetoptera 2000 with innovative propulsion system. Which one?
i think i had the right design, compact and can cary a huge payload, im not revealing it yet to the public eyes, my design is easy very cheap to make, i have not yet have a pattent. youl be surprise when this design uncovers, it will revolutionize transportation.
@@joealagjr.5975 They all say that
@@KnHighmer_Dos yeah thats right, but i think im not foolish enough to overstimate myself and im not that super smart thats why im very confident to say that my design is very practical and simple, that even a person like me can claim it confidently. i can say that the answer is already right under your nose you people just dont realize it it yet, remember me a lowly filipino that will make history
@@joealagjr.5975 Alright, go get em
Does the Joby 4 use capacitors to help when energy level is maxed out for short burst of energy when needed?
Sorry we can't answer this question properly.
Anti gravity machines will be given to us norms some time after the great reset. Though they have had them for a very long time.
8:18... most effective, efficient and hilarious aviation use of a 3 second "Happy tree friends" video...ever. I think the Chinese Govt. will insist all EHang flyers sign their organ donor cards before embarking.
Thanks for your comment and... humor :)
how much energy needed litium to fly. why there isnt macro jet engine?
Autonomous air taxis hailed on a smartphone is what I'm looking for.
I have also heard and seen that the EHANG is NOT individual pilot control, compared to the Vo.ocopter.
sweet, so I can taxi to a air taxi, then taxi to a taxi and then get to the Bar! YESSSSSS!
I think JOBY has best mechanical design, but they need to work on autonomy, because as of right now they need a pilot to fly it which takes up weight and space. They also need to incorporate a battery pack swap design as well, if they did those 2 things they would have the perfect craft.
Great points, thanks
What specialty do I study in college to be able to make such small airplanes?
Now someone needs to invent ev powered jet rocket pants
Economical feasability is the entire target, it has to be cheap and accessible.

Almost there
My personal opinion, is that a hybrid (Elect. & Nat. Gas) would be the way to go (Increased distances). We now know, that EVs have already run their course, and people are tired of spending a lot of their hard earned $$$$, to travel a short distance, and then have to replace batteries after a couple of years, at another big cost.
Clearly Joby and Lilium have the best combination of important characteristics. And as of today (20221208) each share of LILM is only $1.27 since the share price has been consistently falling. That's a company valuation of $382M USD for LILM and 2180M for JOBY. From this I infer the market believes JOBY has a big advantage over LILM, even though (to me) the Lilium aircraft seems to edge out the Joby design in most ways. Does anyone know why the market values JOBY about 6x higher than LILM ??? Seems I'm missing something ... though maybe the 2x higher estimated sale price per airplane for LILM is the reason? Opinions?
Based on my own very early design attempts I estimate Lilium will eventually reduce the total number of motors by somewhere between 4 and 8. That should improve efficiency a bit and help lower the price slightly. Also, I'm guessing that after 1 or 2 years they'll do without pilots, which will lower weight and operating costs.
When you talk about aviation, safety is the priority among other factors. EVTOL is not flying a kite where you put a human inside.
I was surprised that the black fly wasn’t not among you selection.
According to the description given by its creators, the eVTOL Blackfly is a personal flying car with fixed tandem wings and full-electric propulsion.
@@TopBoxy I think that the combination of vertical take off with some kind of fixed wing is the best of both worlds. It is maneuverability and efficiency.

Incredible that you didn't quote embraer's eve!
Embraer`s bird can be seen a little on 19:20 and it will be in the second part, since it is still too far from complete.
THe big three are Joby Lilium and Ehang. Those are the three with most invested time and effort. And all three will fare well once they get their numbers and routes up to speed. Expect full deployment in the next 3 to 5 years. As its not neccesarily about the evolution and completion of the aircraft as their just about done, but rather the vertiports and overall air networks that has to be built alongside current aviation commercial operations. New laws and regulations having to be drawn up to accomodate these aircraft which will likely fly in bravo airspace. and how it will coinside with current bravo airspace aircraft. never the less. its just about time to invest in their stocks granted, write not it doesnt look as if their stocks is doing well. Its actually fine. those that get in big now may take a beating but when it all takes off as its already doing in regards to notoriety. then people will invest hard. This is a trilliion dollar industry in the making. a self serving industry and yet one that will branch off into many sectors. If anything its the helicopter industry that will take a major hit with the coming of these evtols, just as capable less complicated and seating more with far less pollution. And it is possible in the distant future that these will indeed go consumer market. JEtsons back to the future Blade runner fifth element here we come.
Lilium only provided miniature models that can only fly for a few minutes at just 70km/h as compared to the touted 280km/h so they're not really proving anything yet when it comes to the travel aerodynamics. I'm not sure if Joby is load-less but, at least, it is full-scale and flies at full speed with all the equipment onboard so it's not just hype.
The elephant in the room is that small-factor propellers are exrreeemely inefficient and there's no working around it.
@@ziad_jkhan so that being said do you think Lilium has the best technology
And that was well said, we are definitely early investors and the smart money that gets in early and let the rest pump our bags 💰.
@@byronnash45 Well, as I mentioned, they're a potential scam else they're among the best but certainly not the most affordable. They're literally sacrificing efficiency for esthetics but if that's what gets the most investment. The technology is not impossible but I doubt it'll be of much benefit if it's reserved for the super-rich. The other options are not cheap neither but, at least, they're taking battery limitations into consideration. Lilium will only be worth it once battery density goes up considerably but that'll probably take us another decade. In the meantime, it's wiser to bet on the other competitors I'd say.
@@ziad_jkhan interesting 🤔, I’m still doing research on this company I’m a long term investor. So I would mind for the technology side to catch up for the batteries to be more efficient. I personally think Lilium has the best designed some of the others use the same propulsion system as seen on helicopters yes maybe more efficient cost wise, but Lilium technology has some advantages. Plus Palantir is working with Lilium i highly doubt it’s a scam just my thoughts, I think Palantir will definitely Help Lilium be more efficient with the analytics provided. As the technology gets more advance it’ll become more cheaper and lighter in weight to become more efficient. I think the market for eVtol Travel is a huge market. Thank you for you insight very helpful.
I agree we didn't see it all before.. EVTOL JOBY s4 is an absolutely rubbish design: heavy, inefficient, over-complicated, poor range and expensive.. yep, that's definitely a future - future disaster for all investors!
