Project Heaviside Electric VTOL Revealed By Kitty Hawk [Video]
Kitty Hawk has unveiled a new personal electric VTOL aircraft they are calling Project Heaviside. The video shows what appears to be a single seat aircraft but flown empty in the demonstration.
Driven by eight apparently battery-electric-powered pivoting rotors, Kitty Hawk claims the new aircraft "is roughly 100 times quieter than a regular helicopter."
