The Drone of Drones
Spain's aerial mobility vehicle developer UMiles has unveiled two, new, fascinating aircraft. One is a remotely piloted, electric air taxi concept and the other is a piloted, two passenger eVTOL vehicle called Integrity 3. The single seat, remotely piloted air taxi is being called the "drone of drones" by UMiles. It has been built as a prototye and will be test flown in a number of European cities later this year. UMiles is a new contender in the growing air mobility market and an experienced drone manufacturer to watch. It is quite a technological feat for a relatively small to medium sized aviation company to be unveiling two new models of flying technology at once.
The Drone of Drones
UMiles' the "drone of drones" is the first air taxi with 100% Spanish technology, development and manufacturing. It was designed at Spain's largest technological R&D center, Tecnadia. UMiles holds the patent and the two are now moving it into the flight-testing phase. The drone is all-electric. At this time, it has a range of 15 minutes flight time on a charge. Top speed is 50 mph. Maximum payload is 220 pounds.
Integrity 3
Also under development is Integrity 3, a short to medium range eVTOL with FlyFree technology. It's a piloted aircraft that offers more autonomous features and more capacity for a premium flying experience for passengers. It's targeted at executive and tourist travel. It can carry a 661-pound payload, has a maximum speed of 137 mph and a range on a charge of 78 miles. The aircraft can carry a pilot and two passengers. It is all-electric, noiseless and eco-friendly with zero emissions. These new vehicles are new perspectives on the future of travel and flying. For more news like this, The Future of Flying
