Is it the final key form factor for most of eVTOL?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is compatible with vertical take-off, vertical landing and fast cruise speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It stores the energy far from the cabin and it keeps the propellers above the embarking passengers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The streamlined twin boom design, may be the answer, holding the lifting propellers and pushing propellers behind the fuselage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This design is more and more adopted by companies with the most promising capabilities: Volocopter <\/a>and Airbus <\/a>in Germany, Beta Technologies<\/a> in the USA and Autoflight <\/a>in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
