eVTOL/Flying Car Takeoff, Flight & Landing - EHang EH216-S @ Tsukuba Heliport in March 2024

【空飛ぶクルマ（電動垂直離着陸型無操縦者航空機）】イーハン（億航） EH216-S 離陸と飛行と着陸／つくば航空、AirX JX0168 つくばヘリポートにて This model is an AAV (Autonomous Aerial Vehicle) for UAM (Urban Air Mobility) purposes that is a larger electric multicopter drone capable of carrying people, and is planned for use as an air taxi.

Compared to conventional helicopters, it is electric and has many rotors, so it makes less noise, its structure is simple, so it is easy to maintain, and if it is mass-produced, the aircraft may be cheaper. It has the advantage of being an autopilot, so the operating costs are low, but its disadvantages are that it has a short range and cannot autorotate.

This model has a coaxial rotor, so it is smaller than eVTOLs of similar performance made by other companies. In addition, the eight arms with the rotors can be folded upward to make it even smaller.

The cabin has only two seats and a display, but no control stick or pedals. There is also a trunk at the rear of the aircraft that can hold an 18-inch suitcase.

There is also a model called EH216-L for logistics, which does not have a cabin and luggage is placed under the aircraft.

Below is the synopsis. Please watch from the scene of your choice.
