Vertical Aerospace has achieved a significant milestone in developing its VX4 electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft by successfully completing Phase 2 of piloted thrustborne testing. The aircraft demonstrated exceptional stability and performance through over 30 test flights, showcasing impressive hover capabilities and maneuverability. This sets the stage for the upcoming piloted wingborne flight, marking the world’s first full-scale tilt-rotor eVTOL transition to conventional flight. The company recently raised $90 million, enhancing its momentum as it prepares for the next phase, which is crucial for achieving full certification and advancing electric aviation.
