    Awesome moment for her and for aviation. The video captured the magic of this aircraft and this time in history.

    Why no video of takeoff and landing?

      great question

      You can find several views of take-off or landing in the "Bentonville and Back" video on YT.

      My honest opinion, I think it takes off very slow and lands very slow. Possibly 10mins or more. In all their videos they barely show the thing taking off and from what I know right now a big problem with eVTOLs right now is they exert the most energy taking off and landing. Even some of the smaller eVTOLS that actually do give full demonstrations, take off pretty slow.

    Fantastic flight! Looking forward to seeing ALIA here at KRME sometime!

    Is there a marketing or investor relations challenge here? Shouldn’t everyone know about this company? Why aren’t there 30M views on this? The wide-scale applications for this type of aircraft and total addressable market is massive. Where can I invest?

      Its more hype and marketing then where the technology is actually at. They put out these videos to sell to investors but not all investors are sold. This thing can barely take off with 2 people and they still have not gave a full demonstration from take off to landing.

    Are there batteries in the booms?

    • @hermanwiegman64
      @hermanwiegman64 Рік тому +1

      Good question. No, they are under the cargo floor for better CG and ease of integration.

    carbon footprint lol...what's the carbon footprint from manufacturing all those batteries?

    • @hermanwiegman64
      @hermanwiegman64 Рік тому

      The carbon penalty of fabricating the Li-ion batteries is less than 10% of the carbon that the batteries will displace relative to conventional fuel powered aircraft of similar capability.

      @@hermanwiegman64 but when the battery is at the end of it's service life what will be the cost to replace?

  • @seaplaneguy1

    This tech is 100% obsolete. This is in NO way low CO2 and will NEVER be or can be net zero. It is a complete waste of time and money.
    There is a better way. Happy to discuss, but if not, don't expect to do anything but go bankrupt like all such craft.

    I'm confused. The founder is referred as "she" but sounds and looks like a "he".
