Airborne-UnCrewed 04.26.22: XPO22 Is ON!, Tesla v Jet, Beta Raises $375M

Also: Vertical Proceeds, Natilus Expands, Rocket Lab Contract, Eve Partners with Thales

AUVSI’s long awaited XPONENTIAL 2022 is now in full swing... and the action is fierce.

ANN’s Airborne-Uncrewed video news team is on site and cranking out stories and interviews as fast as we can. Celebrating its 50th anniversary, the Association for Uncrewed Vehicles Systems International (AUVSI) brings its world class annual conference, XPONENTIAL, to Orlando, this week. Surveillance footage making the rounds is making aviators and Tesla aficionados cringe this week as it shows a remotely summoned Tesla collide with a parked Vision jet at low speed. The security camera video reportedly shows the result of a Tesla owner using the Remote Summon feature of his car, an automated capability that uses a combination of sensors and programming to take the car short distances when the owner requests it. Beta’s $375 million funding addition brings its total valuation to $2.4 billion in its quest to develop its Alia aircraft. The investment will allow them to further develop the ecosystem required for a cargo version of the Alia, from charging to fleet support. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-UnCrewed!!!
