eVTOL Sportster Will Integrate the SafeAir Recovery System
Jetson has announced the selection of ParaZero's SafeAir parachute recovery system for their ONE, the firm's single-person electric VTOL aircraft.

The company has captured attention with a handful of adverts that show a more sporty, personal approach to eVTOL design, less focused on utilitarian cargo carriage and more on the visceral excitement of a flying sports car. Just as general aviation aircraft have seen success in courting a wider customer base with a deployable airframe parachute, the ONE's incorporation of a comprehensive safety system should help to open up an even wider swathe of prospective pilots. It will be interesting to see how ParaZero ensures parachute functionality on the Jetson's usual flight envelope - unlike other aircraft, the ONE is best enjoyed at low altitudes, where the rush of passing scenery seems faster and more thrilling than loafing about a few thousand feet up.
“Introducing and incorporating the best possible safety technology is high on Jetson’s development priorities and was one of the reasons for selecting ParaZero and their patented parachute deployment technology into the Jetson ONE. ParaZero solutions can enable the possibility of the safest and most optimal flight envelope for our customers.”

“The unique low altitude airframe recovery system of ParaZero is complementing the redundant propulsion and fail-safe systems standard on the Jetson ONE," said CEO Stéphan D'haene. "We are focusing on a complete and integrated solution, and ParaZero has the right setup and engineering team to support Jetson’s safety priorities.”
However they're going to get it done, both ParaZero and Jetson seem very confident that a low-altitude recovery system is completely doable.
"We are thrilled to be partnering with Jetson to bring our technology to a wide range of manned personal eVTOLs. We see Jetson as a high valued partner”, says ParaZero CEO, Boaz Shetzer. “Jetson have managed to generate huge traction for their the Jetson ONE, and can open vast flight opportunities for many people around the world. ParaZero’s patented parachute launching technology will enable the safest possible flight envelope for Jetson ONE users, meeting the challenges for low altitude recovery.”
