Vertiia is a hydrogen-powered eVTOL (Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing) aircraft that targets to use less energy per seat than a highspeed<br />
train. The initial aircraft will be certified for piloted flight, with autonomy systems installed for future remote piloted applications. AMSL<br />
Aero expects the cost to operate Vertiia to be comparable with short-range (domestic) airliners. Vertiia’s aeromedical setup will seat a pilot,<br />
a paramedic, and/or a doctor doctor and patient, or it will be configured to carry passengers (1 pilot + 4pax). AMSL Aero holds international<br />
patents for Vertiia, protecting its core technological features, including its unique wing tilting mechanism combined with its box wing design<br />
and control system. Vertiia is an eight-electric motor tilting wing aircraft that can operate from a helipad or similar-sized landing site.<br />
