RYSE Aero Technologies Makes History as the First eVTOL Company to Take Flight at CES with their Ultralight Vehicle, the RYSE RECON
RYSE Aero Technologies, the ultralight electric vertical takeoff, and landing (eVTOL) company, will exhibit at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas on January 5-8. Exhibiting under the “Vehicle Tech” category, RYSE will be at booth #6816, located at West Hall in the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC).
Ryse Aero Technologies lets farmers to take to the sky
Powered by six electric motors, the carbon-blade propellers spin at 2,000 rpm and when flying it’s not very loud. Kowitz is also quick to point out how easy it is to fly, noting that with as little as 45 minutes of training a user can be in the air.
This Flying ATV Might Bring Farming Into a Cyberpunk Future
It’s easier to operate a flying ATV than you think—or, at least it was for me. That’s not a humblebrag either. It was designed so any idiot like me—who backs up into his recycling bin every time he pulls out of the driveway—can jump in and use it.
EVTOL Ambitions Tackling New Regulations
RYSE Aero Technologies, which in May announced the launch of RYSE RECON, its first eVTOL platform, is unaffected by the FAA change since its aircraft are to operate within the specifications of 14 CFR, Part 103 for ultralight flights.
Ryse Aero Tech’s Goal to Bring eVTOLs to Non-Pilots!
Several innovations have been made about eVTOL (electrical vertical take-off and landing) vehicles as of late. Ryse Aero Tech’s eVTOL is pretty simplistic in its approach and designed with non-flyers in mind.
Ultralight eVTOL Aircraft Prepares for Multiple Agricultural and Rural Support Roles
Ryse, which was founded just last year, is preparing to make a first piloted flight with its Recon aircraft, building on uncrewed sorties conducted so far. The company’s objective is to have the vehicle—which features six independent lift-and-cruise propulsion systems—in production as early as the first quarter of 2023.
We can put you in it, and you can fly tomorrow “ – RYSE Aero Technologies CEO Mick Kowitz
The first light eVTOL from RYSE Aero Technologies, the RYSE RECON, flies below FAA regulations. It provides ways for non-pilots to fly into remote areas. Auto Futures talks to CEO, Mick Kowitz, who details how the aircraft is designed with AI and safety features that allow someone to learn how to fly it in a day.
RYSE Aero Technologies debuts ‘RYSE RECON’ at ACT Expo
With the debut of the RECON, RYSE Aero Technologies looks to re-define the eVTOL space by venturing into untapped markets, such as agronomy, land surveying, agriculture, vineyards, and other rural sectors.
Ryse Recon Aims to Have Farmers Fly Above Their Crops in Their Personal eVTOL Aircraft
We’re already seeing drones used in agriculture, helping farmers with various tasks such as smart crop spraying and seeding, soil and field analysis, and more.
