Airspeeder Reveals MK4 Racer

Alauda Aeronautics Unveils High-Performance, Sustainable eVTOL Racer

The Mk4 aims to be the world's fastest eVTOL, hitting a top speed of 225 mph at the tail end of a 30-second sprint. Powered by the 1,340-horsepower "Thunderstrike" hydrogen turbogenerator, the Mk4 can travel about 188 miles between refuelings with near-zero emissions. The resulting aircraft strikes a balance between traditional VTOL aircraft and terrestrial sports cars - a blend of eVTOL capability with the handling of a Formula 1 racers.

From 2016 (YouTube Version): NASA Develops Electric Flight Technology for Industry to Use…

While at EAA AirVenture 2016, our ANN video crew checked in with NASA to find out what’s going on with their experiments into electric powered flight. They had the opportunity to interview Mark Moore and Sean Clarke, who are both NASA Principal Investigators for the Sceptor X-57 project. Just the name of this project sounds pretty exciting, and it is. The project centers on using electric propulsion for airplane flight, and the system being developed by NASA is referred to as ‘Distributive Electrical Prop
