However, the significance of achieving stable flight at 100km\/h goes beyond simply reaching a certain number on the airspeed indicator.<\/p><p>Aircraft development begins with design and analysis, proceeds through individual system tests and ground tests, and then moves on to the manufacture of a full-scale aircraft and flight testing. At the same time, simulators are used to repeatedly verify flight characteristics, propulsion systems, and flight control systems.<\/p><p>Simulation, analysis and ground testing are all key parts of the process, but the final flight testing stage is critical. There are some things that cannot be known until the aircraft actually flies. This is particularly true of high-speed flight, where aerodynamic forces, vibrations, structural loads, and flight control system response all change and interact in complex ways. Flight testing is the only way to verify whether the results predicted during the design phase accurately describe the aircraft\u2019s in-flight behavior.<\/p><p>As SkyDrive\u2019s aircraft is based on a completely new concept, distinct from conventional fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, we cannot assume that existing knowledge and flight data will apply. Every new aircraft needs to collect and verify data through actual flight tests, but with a new aircraft concept, this phase becomes even more indispensable.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9245229 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"9245229\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2983d69\" data-id=\"2983d69\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4dcb9d7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4dcb9d7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>\u25a0 The Benefits of Reaching 100km\/h with our Multicopter<\/strong><\/p><ol><li><strong>Achievement of Important Technical Milestones<\/strong><br \/>During high-speed flight, aerodynamic forces, vibrations, structural loads, propulsion systems and flight control all change significantly, as do the interactions between them. High speed testing is a critical stage of aircraft development as it allows us to confirm the appropriateness of our design and the precision of our prior analyses.<p><br \/>Flight testing also frequently reveals new challenges. If the data from actual flight testing differs significantly from the data assumed at the design and analysis stage, it can result in the need for additional testing, design changes, and even the revision of existing development plans.<\/p><p>Our current flight test campaign has allowed us to confirm the stability, controllability and structural integrity of the aircraft, as well as the functionality of the aircraft\u2019s various systems. The results show that the observed flight characteristics and behaviour match our expectations from the design and analysis phase.<\/p><p>SkyDrive is pleased to have achieved high speed forward flight, overcoming the difficulties of reaching this stage and demonstrating the appropriateness of our design, analysis and testing assumptions. We are now able to move our development forward toward the certification and commercialization of our aircraft with a higher degree of visibility and predictability.<br \/><br \/><\/p><\/li><li><strong>Confirming the Ability of a Compact Multicopter to Enable Urban Air Mobility<\/strong><p>The recent high speed forward flight tests conducted by SkyDrive demonstrate the utility of the compact multicopter concept that SkyDrive has pursued since the company\u2019s founding.<\/p><p>SkyDrive\u2019s multicopter design, which eschews fixed wings, is optimized for use in urban airspaces. A compact design not only allows for wider flexibility in takeoff and landing locations, it also keeps the aircraft structure and operations as simple as possible, reducing operational costs and improving maintainability.<\/p><p>The compact multicopter design represents a revolution in aviation. However, while the new design brings many benefits, it also means that the aircraft testing cannot rely on the past data collected from existing commercial aircraft models. This makes it particularly important for SkyDrive to show that its aircraft can fly safely at the speeds required for commercial operations and also that the compact multicopter design is truly feasible for urban airspace use.<\/p><p>Through these recent high speed tests, SkyDrive has confirmed that our aircraft architecture, which uses 12 independent rotors under the control of a central flight control system, functions as designed in high speed forward flight, a confirmation that further underscores the feasibility of using the aircraft for short-hop urban flights.<\/p><p>100km\/h is not just a number. It is an important step towards the establishment of multicopters as a new and efficient means of urban transport.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a792737 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a792737\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3644aa4\" data-id=\"3644aa4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bd70bb5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bd70bb5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>\u25a0 How SkyDrive Achieved Successful High Speed Flight Testing<\/strong><br \/>The successful achievement of 100km\/h flight is the culmination of a long process.
