Unmanned Vehicles

“The test site will serve as a controlled real-world validation environment (“sandbox”) designed to evaluate aircraft operations alongside the supporting systems required for safe AAM deployment, including vertiports, digital air traffic management, and secure communication systems,” said SALAAM.earth in a new release. “The first aircraft to participate will be the FlyNow eCopter, an electric unmanned air taxi capable of flying up to 50 km at speeds of 130 km/h and carrying up to two passengers or 200 kg of cargo. The site will assess multiple operational use cases, including urban passenger transport, logistics, and emergency response applications such as firefighting and medical evacuation, evaluating how electric vertical mobility platforms perform across real-world operational scenarios.”
