Technology & safety

Built to keep flying.

We designed for the worst case first. Then made it beautiful.

8-rotor redundancy

Keeps flying with up to 4 motors out.

Whole-airframe parachute

The whole aircraft comes down safe under one canopy.

Hybrid powertrain

4 battery packs, crossed. No single point of energy failure.

Autopilot-first

The autopilot flies. You make the decisions.

Ready when you are.

A deposit reserves a chassis number and your place in the production queue.

How redundancy works

One motor out. Seven keep you flying.

8 brushless motors sit across 4 booms, each boom a stacked propeller pair. 4 battery packs feed the booms in a crossed layout, so a single battery failure never disables both motors on the same boom.
